if I use it through a voltage converter 110v to 220v, will it affect the sound?

I assume you are talking about the 110v version of the Lyr as that is what this Amazon page is for. If you use a good quality step-down to convert 220v to 110v, there should not be a problem. IF you use a lesser quality travel model it may produce some hum. Also, my experience with the travel convertors is that they can pop occasionally, dropping power for an instant, and that would be very bad for the tubes.

According to the printed specs on the AC adapter unit that came with my Headphone Amplifier, it will work from 120 to 240 v.

No. It has a 120v cord with a built in transformer to plug in to speaker. You would have to get a similar setup to use 220v.

Hi CRSBRZ,No, the speakers work on a 110V. The shipping weight is about 39 pounds the box they are currently in measures 18x15x29.Thanks for your interest!

ONLY if used with a 220-to-110-volt converter! Damages the unit if plugged directly into 220V! This reply by the manufacturer!!!

It should! It's supposed to convert from 110V to 220V and also from 220V to 110V. I'm using mine in the US where it is 110V 60Hz. I'm using it on the equipment I brought with me from Norway that was made for 220V 50Hz. There's a switch in the front to select what input voltage you're connecting to. I've had mine for almost 2 years and haven't had any problems with it at all.

I would advise against using a voltage adapter due to the difference in Hertz. And it's not called a voltage adapter, it's called a power transformer.

Speaker operation has nothing to do with input AC voltage. The speaker is strictly driven by the audio amplifier, which is affected by the input voltage. If your amplifier is 220 capable, the output will drive these speakers correctly.

Yes. The internal amp isnt affected by the higher voltage, it has a converter. Bose makes an adapter plug that replaces the chord for US outlets.

I have been using in the USA for over two years with no problem at all. One thing worth thinking about is getting a voltage stabilizer (I use a unit from Panamax). It made a big difference in terms of keeping my European stereo amplifier running smoothly.

Yes, but keep in mind that they just convert the plug type, they don't dial down the voltage. It is 220v over there, and 110v over here. Look in what ever you are plugging in and look at the input range. Should say 110v to 220v. I lugged in a little desk fan for white noise, and the little guy overloaded and blew up. It was awesome . Best to avoid that though...

No if amp is wired for 110 then it will not work. You might request the 220 version when ordering.

Input shown in the back of the subwoofer says 120 V ~ 60 Hz, not extended to 220 V. I have 220 V at home and will use a 110 V transformer allways for my speakers.

No, It is 120 volt. You will need a converter to use in 220volt countries. But I love the quality of the sound and its overall performance. It is worth trying it if you really want it, just get that converter.

It does not matter 110 or 220.it will not last.google it.you will see many Onlyo receiver with HDMI board problem with no sound.

I live in South Carolina, USA, and my model is 110 volt only for both soundbar and subwoofer. Check with Polk Audio for a 220 volt version or you may be able to use a voltage converter. Gary

The manual says (for all versions of this player for various countries) that it supports 110-240V at 60Hz (or in a couple of cases 50/60Hz), so it should. Personally, I don't still have the box and any extra cables that might have come with it, and I don't remember a way to connect it to 220, but then I wouldn't.
