There is a voltage difference between Singapore and the US, in your list you did not mention a UK-US voltage transformer, an international plug converter just changes the type of plug and socket.moonberrry wrote:

Yes I brought everything with me that was not nailed down in the kitchen. I use it all and so glad I listened to myself.durain wrote:OMG, you bring the whole kitchen with you.dont forget the kitchen sink.
thailand, malaysia and indonesia all use the same voltage as singapore.
Check the manual -- the turntable motor may rely on the frequency, which means that it may not work properly even if you use a transformer.rbwmac wrote:We did purchase a transformer for our sound system.

Do you think it would be ok on the transformer?
You need to check to see if it is an AC synchronous motor (in which case it will probably not run at the right speed (50 Hz here versus 60 Hz in the US), or if it uses a DC motor, in which case you should be able to control the speed.jpatokal wrote:Check the manual -- the turntable motor may rely on the frequency, which means that it may not work properly even if you use a transformer.rbwmac wrote:We did purchase a transformer for our sound system.

I know this is a pretty old post, but did you have any luck with the turntable? I'm moving to Singapore soon and want to bring my turntables, mixer, etc but am not sure yet if I'll be able to make it all work.rbwmac wrote: We did purchase a transformer for our sound system.
