help on input voltage selector MARSHALL MG15CFX

[walteroa]

Hi all,
I'll buy a MARSHALL MG15CFX, but as I live in a country with 220VAC as input voltage.. I need to know if there is a way to select the voltage from 200-240VAC or similar range.. from this amp.

I could find such info on the web or manuals....

do you have any picture or instructions?
repair manual?

txs a lot!!

Some models have export transformers that can be changed to 220 Volts...some do not...depends on which one was installed by the factory.
Contact Marshall tech support in your country to find out.

Txs!

Now, I'll buy the amp in the USA (with is 110VAC) and I wanna use with 220VAC in my country of origin.
So, cannot contact local MArshall dealer (BTW: there's no one here), and I have to deal with store..

Again, if someone else can will be really apreciated

Txs!

Inexpensive amps like that do not usually have switches for changing the input voltage. They usually use different power transformers depending on the country they are to be sold in.
That's a fairly low power amp so your best bet would probably be to get a travel type voltage transformer so you can use the 120V amp in a country that has 220V line voltage.
Here's an example: Power Voltage Converter | Heavy Duty Voltage Transformer | Step Up & Down

Just to know, specially because i'm not playing guitar by myself....

Change the voltage with external transformer (from 220VAC @50Hz to 110VAC @60Hz) also include frequency change.
This suppossed to potentially include "low freq armonic distortion".

(I'm electronic engineer) ;-)

What do u think?
Is there any experience on it out there?

Txs again!

It is merely the mains voltage, not part of the signal path. There will not be any problems using the 50Hz or 60Hz transformers. The amp will work on 50Hz.
