thdrought Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 I have a pair of RP-5's, an RC-3 and RS-3's. I love them. For the price, it's the best sound out there and I don't want to part with them. My dilemna is that I am relocating from the US to Germany. I was measuring and weighing them for possible shippers when I noticed their only good for 120 volts. Most of my other equipment can switch between US and Euro voltages, except my RP-5's. Why's that? Is it the Amp? What can I do about it? Could I strip out the amps? But, then, how much would I expect to pay to replace them? I don't want to part with them, but, since I have only a little money, things aren't looking good. Any suggestions? If I have to part with them, what is a good selling price for them. I was thinking a grand for the set. Retail, that's over half off. The speaker are just a little over a year old, but, look like there brand new.

brianlbjr Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 Are you PCSing and in the military? You should be able to get a voltage converter at the BX or some other store. I had to use a voltage converter for my alarm clock when I went TDY to Korea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thdrought Posted August 12, 2002 Author Share Posted August 12, 2002 I wish. It's more like USPS'ing. Though, the weight restrictions are 70 pounds. The RP-5's are 73 lbs without any packaging. I wonder... what would be the weight of the amp? I am considering a dismantel and separate shipment for some of the components. Any new thoughts.
