Step up transformer


Looking for opinions on using a step up transformer for an amplifier I am considering buying, it is 230V(I live in the US)and am wondering if using a transformer will degrade the sound at all? Thanks

Topaz (or MGE), Xentek, Deltec are all top-quality transformers. As for power
rating, Sidssp is in accord with many others when he says that 50% more will do
it. Some do say, though, that even more is still better, because even less likely to
saturate on high power draw. If you can find one rated double at reasonable
cost, I would go for it.
You need 1500 watts or higher.

There's a 28 amp Getra step up on Ebay for $27 but I'll bet shipping will be quite a bit. No relation.

Properly (or overly) sized, should be no detriment although some can have mechanical hum... no guarantee. Some benefit through filtering and DC blocking. Some extra power draw, even at no load.
