Anyone have any experience with Japan's voltage and their electronics? I
understand that the Japan voltage is 100 volts, unlike our 110/120 volts.
In most of my equipment, it seems to have automatic switching (100-240).
Anyone with expience of using your Paris and other audio hardware over there?
I am looking to go there within the next few months and I am trying to figure
out if I need some kind of converter. And if there are any issues. I have
some rather expensive equipment I'd rather not get ruined because of that.
When I inquire with the locals over there... they usually reply that they
use a converter, but no other details are known... plus, they are prolly
referring to stereo's and not pro equipment. Anyone?

Well, as the voltage is supposedly 100v, and I think it is, and Paris is
rated at 100 - 250, I would say that 100 volts can't possibly do any damage.
You're putting in less voltage than it's used to.
