Re: [microsound] A little help? Prepping gear for euroland



Never had to do it US to Euro, but when the Euros have come here to Madison I've yet to hear anyone worry about surge/conversion damage.
They just plug in to the converter and rock out. *shrug* I think you'll be fine as well, just get the best quality converter you can.

Subject: [microsound] A little help? Prepping gear for euroland



Hi guys... first trip to europe is approaching and i'm sitting here with all this gear and no idea how I am going to convert it all safely or if I even can.

I've read and heard mixed things from different people. I've read and been told that even if you successfully convert to proper voltages and things that you still run the risk of frying your items and/or blowing a fuse for different reasons. I don't want to have any 'surprises' when I get there.

Here's what I need to bring. Some of which might be fine, but I'll put a * beside the ones i'm most worried about. They don't seem to be rated properly and I don't know what to believe from everything that i've heard about conversion.
