Korg AX3000b Power Supply question

[phektus]

I just bought a Korg AX3000b from a local shop which was imported from Japan. That means japanese manual and 110 power adapter. I know the manual is available on the Korg website so no problem. However, I'm quite hesitant on trying my 9v adapter on it set to 220. I have this power adapter bought in a local hardware store that I used to put in my Behringer BDI21 (sold it already).

Now my question is, can I use the generic 9v adapter set at 220 on my Korg ax3000b, knowing that the power adapter included is also 9v but set at 110?

My generic power adapter can emulate up 12v, 220-240 or 100-110 as well as pole switch. I'm afraid to try it on the ax3000b as you know 110 appliance will blow up if you put it on a 220 socket. Although the manual says the included power supply is just 9v, so maybe I could just change the adapter to my generic and I won't need any converters.

I think I get what you're asking...

Lets set you straight. 9VDC is 9VDC is 9VDC. Doesn't matter how it got there, where it came from or what political party it votes for.

Just make sure your power supply is set to accept the mains voltage in your country and to output 9VDC with the correct polarity at the connector.

I will say this though - having an adapter which you can accidentally destroy by setting the switches incorrectly is a bad idea. I would recommend you go and buy a set 220VAC-9VDC power supply so there's absolutely no chance of doing anything you'll regret.

Cool man, I also had the same idea - as long as it's 9v on output, it won't be a problem. I'll take your advice and search for an adapter with fixed settings. One with a Korg brand will be the best. Again, thanks!
