I just purchased a 'Yamaha RX-V675 7.2 Channel Network AV Receiver' from Amazon USA, and confirmed with their online support staff that it's rated to work on ' 130/170/200/240 V '
I paid R.6,755.56, with shipping (fastest) and customs / duties.
The online support staff also informed me that I could return it to them for a refund, where they will arrange shipping, should it not working.
My question is, if it doesn't work on our local 220/240V, at that price I paid. would it not be better to rather get a 220v to 110v AC-AC converter?
I think Rabtron sells a 1000W one (perhaps overkill?) for about R.900.oo or so.
And from a few posts, I see that most modern electronics have built support to handle the frequency differences.
