MarkBass LMII question.

[farbs]

Hi Guys,
I live in Aus. and am thinking of picking up one of these heads from the U.S. (They are alot more over here). Anyway was wondering if anyone knows about the power supply and if it is unversal. We are 240v here.
Or are they made for specific countries?

Sorry, not universal.

Get one from europe! We have 230V here

They have a jumper on the ICE Power 125ASX2 to switch from 115V to 230V.

if you get the power issue squared away, its one of the best amps for the price.

So does that mean it can be done?
Do I have to open it up and physically flick a switch?
Can I do this or should I take to an electrician and also does the fuse need replacing. Thanks for the responses guys and it looks promising!!

Not sure if you aware that the new LMIII is out for sale.

It's more than just flicking a switch but it's not complicated. I think it's just a matter of a couple solders. Only thing is it voids the warranty to do it yourself.

another thing is that it might not even have warranty considering it was shipped out of the US?

To the post above - unfortunately, the LMIII is not for sale yet. It just slipped from 5/22 to 6/22 on the GC web site. Looks like this is typical of MB. Not a real smart business practice. Introduce new products, discontinue old product, no new product available, customers won't buy "old" product, can't get new product, buy something else!

Thanks for all the responses.
I'm thinking of buying used so not to concerned about waranty.

Where would I find instructions for this conversion??

You don't need to do any conversions. If you buy it here, it's already setup for our power supply (240v/50hz).

I just tried to find it, but didn't have much luck. It's on here somewhere, though.
