Hi, I have been offline from this group for a while, but would
appreciate some advice on restoring a stock Dynaco ST70 for use in the
UK. Thanks, David



David is one of my 'offroaders' and offlist I have pointed him to a
stepdown trannie for his 117 Volt Dynaco ST70, mentioned above:

Does anyone here know of any drawbacks or why one of these might not be
suitable for audio use? (I have never used one myself - my Dynacos being
240V....)

My thinking is that it would allow him to retain his original (I hope)
Dynaco power supply trannie...???

(Note the clever 'Brit plug/Yank socket' arrangement on the 16 quid
model - very handy for anyone with similar Yank kit with original power
cables/plugs on it...!!)

**Forget the 16 Squid model. Not enough grunt. The ST500 should do the trick
though. Other than that, step-down trannies pose no real problems. As with
most things in life, the bigger the better.
