Can anybody tell me if a 240 volt Mics from the U.K. can be adapted for North Amaerica?
Any info would be appreciated...Mike.

I dont think the PS on the mics has a voltage selector, but there is not any reason you could not get a step up converter.

110/120 Volt AC to 220/240 Volts AC (Step-up)

Probably cheaper to by a new cabinet.

Sorry, don't understand autoranging. Do you mean it's as easy as changing the power cord?....Mike

What he meant is auto sensing and is just that, power adapters can detect voltage and adjust accordingly. Why not just by a cabinet, a used one for that matter?
