If you are in India and looking for outlets in India, why are to
'advertising' in a UK newsgroup?

He probably hit the wrond button.
I was just trying to figure out what UK might mean if it did not mean UK,
and on the other hand if he is not looking to the UK why write in English? I
reckon he is here, looking for old stuff he can flog back in India.
Sadly, there is much good hi fi around but people are being conned into
buying AV and dodgy bluetooth speakers, sound bars and surround systems with
naff speakers. None of which sound in the slightest bit convincing.

Probably doesn't understand what "uk." means. Usenet is pretty mysterious

English is the most widespread langauge in India. It's a 'country' that
compromises a large number of ethinic groups who all have thier own
langauges but all of whom understand the langauge of the erstwhile colonial
overlords to a greater or lesser extent.

Excellent deduction there - considering he said as much.
Sadly, there is much good hi fi around
.... and India has a relatively new strata of its population who now have
money to buy this gear but are without the sources at home - hence our
enterprising Indian friends post.
I'm just pondering if the tone of the replies to this post are down to
racism, arrogance or (more kindly) an aversion to commercial posts on
usenet.

Obviously. You both seem to have missed the part where he says he's looking
to buy from markets which use ~220v gear including the UK.
You cast aspersions on *his* comprehension of English (or lack thereof)...

The UK is 240v. Older equipment designed for 220v will very likely go bang
on 240v. Unless the mains transformer has a 240v tapping.
But the equipment mentioned isn't exactly mainstream UK either.
So just why are you defending spam?

230v here was an EU harmonisation. So that equipment made afterwards had
to be suitable for the spread across the EU. But the voltage didn't change
in the UK, even although the specification did. For many things it is OK -
but tungsten lamps have either their brightness and or life altered if not
run at the voltage they are designed for.
220v sounds very like a US etc standard.

Unlikely. Yes the transformer and/or regulators might run a bit warmer
but it is very poor design if 10% over voltage causes something to
fail big time.

I'd expect anything to cope with a short term over voltage. But long term
may well be very different. Up to you if you want to risk it.
I have a Quad 405 on the bench at the moment. That has settings for
220,230 and 240v. Why would they bother if it didn't matter?
