Hello all, I was hoping someone here would be able to answer a few questions for me. I'm looking at buying the Yamaha RX-v2400, but before I do I need to make sure it will work where I live. I'm currently living in Europe, but want to buy the US version of this receiver as it's 1/2 the cost of the same unit in Europe... I'll be going back to the US for vacation so I was planning on bringing it back with me when I return so I won't have to pay the high shipping costs... anyway...
So... here are my questions!
1) The US model only supports 120vAC, so I would need to connect it to a power converter that I'm already using for my TV (2000 volt converter). It changes 220vAC to 120vAC. The main question I have is 220 runs at 50 hz but 120 runs at 60 hz, will this cause a problem? It's not a problem with my HDTV, but I'm not sure if it would affect audio performance in any way.
2) The general model has a switch to change the FM frequency between 100 mhz and 50 mhz, where as the US model only uses 100 mhz. With this in mind, would that mean I wouldn't be able to pickup radio signals here in Europe?
Thanks in advance!!
