Re: [PolySix] Recommend 240v transformer to convert US PolySix to UK

2011-07-17 by tim p

Hi Andy

Thanks for that :0)

 I've converted a number of US machines to UK voltage and repaired various faults on my gear successfully (vintage kit needs maintenance).

 Was just wondering if anyone had a particular recommendation of a specific model transformer for the PolySix in respect of it's build and desirable noise characteristics.

Cheers!
