Default Audio Research LS2 from 110V to 220V

Hello,
I have to modify an Audio Research LS2 preamp, which accepts a 110Vac mains supply, so that It accepts a 230V power.

Does anyone know the technical specifications of the two mains transformers, so that I can substitute them?

Regards.

Paul

Paul,

1st check for dual primary power trafos. In that happy situation, simply rewire from parallel to series.

If dual primaries are not present. Buy a "230/115" VAC autotransformer of appropriate VA rating. You'll spend LESS and get going much more quickly.
