Switching from EU to US voltage on VHT 2/50/2 power amps

Dear Fryette support,
Quick question for you: is it possible to switch a 240V unit into a US voltage?
It’s for an old 2502 power amp.
Thank you very much In advance

Hi Tigrane,

There are two options, you can send it to Fryette where they can swap out the EU transformer for a US one.

Or you can buy you own external EU to US power transformer and run your amp like that. However it would need to be at least 350VA and that will be expensive. Probably sending it in would be best and might work out cheaper!

I had a US Fender Champ and because it was from the 60s and low power I just decided to get an external transformer. To give you an idea. This is only 100VA. A 400VA will be way bigger.


Hi Dan,
Thanks for your supper fast reply. I was hoping something could be done without changing the transformer - now I know better.
Have a great day and keep on getting us great gear. Can’t wait for the new valvulator!
