D-550 power supply question
Posted: 07:16, 10 January 2014
So my D-550 just arrived from the states today, but on the rear panel it says 117V and I need 220V here.
From searching around the net I've found some say the D-550 will automatically switch and work with 100/117/220/240 no problem (and yes, the cable plug will fit outlets here). Others have said they use a step down converter (I only have 220>110 and 220>100 -both are good quality converters). And finally, others have said they soldered a wire and changed a fuse -I don't have a soldering iron or fuses here unfortunately. As I've never soldered anything and don't have the tools, hopefully, I wont have to go this route)..
I contacted Roland tech support, but have yet to receive a reply. Obviously, I don't want to try plugging anything in before getting some confirmation on this. I'd REALLY appreciate some help with figuring this out so I can fire up this baby!
Cheers :)
