Which lightweight heads have switchable voltage?

Sign in to disble this ad
I may be spending some time overseas, and would love a lightweight head that works on both power grids (110 and 230). The only ones that I know can do that so far are:

Acoustic Image Clarus (and other AI heads)
Aguilar TH500
TC Electronic RH's

Are there others I'm missing, or are those basically my choices?

Spanks!

My Ampeg PF500 does, and I'm quite sure the PF350 does too...

All the Genz-Benz amps are switchable. The Eden WTX500 is convertible by switching the jumper internally. Epifani Piccolo is switchable as are the new Ampeg Portaflexes and the Ashdown minis also , I believe. Lots of choices.

The Tecamp Puma line (350/500/1000) can all be switched to either 115V or 230V.

The Aguilar Tone Hammer 500 has this capability, too, along with most Walter Woods amps.
