Hola,
So i have a wonderful Rega planar 3. I've moved across the world from rainy Vancouver to sunny Brisbane Australia... which has 220v 50hz instead of 120v 60hz.
A photocopy of a Rega shop manual states how to convert it over to use the different power. A resistor change, a capacitor change. Easy right?
Well, after some part swapping, i'm within 2% of the spec'd resistor value and 4% of the capacitance asked. Seems not bad, should be alright?
Thing runs slow! Like hilariously slow. What could it be? I did have to parallel some caps to get the right value, but that shouldn't be a factor...
Any ideas? Anyone done a Rega power supply conversion and live to tell about it? I'm hoping to avoid the 'change a value, test, ponder, change a value, test, repeat' scenario.
Cheers,
/Adam
