Question about Logitech X-230 Computer Speakers

2 Answers

Blown Subwoofer I bought the Logitech x-230 in the USA where the voltage is 120v and by mistake plugged it into a 240v socket. The speakers buzzed for a few secs and stopped working. How can I repair them to work on a 120v socket? Is there s fuse?

Did you manage to fix this problem ... i am afraid i might have made the same mistake. But I used a 220V-110V adapter that I have been using for the notebook. I dont understand why that doesnt work in the case of the speaker. Is there any way I can make it work again?

Hi , you will have to open the box and check for any fuses along the power input line, replace them if any and try it out but i strongly believe what happened there is that you fried the power supply in your subwoofer , there is no easy fix to this , you will need to replace the transformer and possibly check to see if the rectification circuit is damaged too, and the amplifier too. Good luck

GE microwave fuse model jes532wn rating 15v but what voltage rating: 120v or 240v ?.thanks

fuses do not have voltage ratings they are a current device. the 15 V does not make sense. It might be 15 A which is the current rating. A standing for Ampere which is the maximum current named after the discoverer of current creating magnetic fields being Andr?-Marie Amp?re in 1826. The 120v or 240v relates to the transformer design in the microwave. The transformer would be design to run on 240V AC 50 HZ AC like in Oz and UK or 120V 60 Hhz AC like used in the USA out of the power point from the power company.
Also the current relates to the voltage. So voltage divided by circuit resistance equals current.denoted by the formula I = V/R

How to change the voltage for Yamaja YSP4000 from 120 V to 220 v

The US and Canadian models are fixed voltage - 120V 60Hz. There isn't a model sold anywhere in the world that is multi voltage. The European model is 220~240V 50/60Hz

If you want to take this product abroad with you, then you will need to buy a Step Down Transformer. This will take 220~240V and convert it to 120.

The power consumption of the YSP4000 is 55W. You should over specify the Step Down Transformer by at least 20% to ensure there's enough current when the speaker needs it. 70W minimum should cover it.

How to change voltage from American standard 120 V to European 220V

This is for a powered speaker? You'll need an "autotransformer" or "step-down transformer" with a 240VAC primary winding and a 120VAC secondary winding. If you try to just use a plug adapter and power that speaker from 240V, you'll destroy it immediately.

Hellooo There, I need to convert my FireStudio Project from 120v (US) to 240v (Australia). Does anyone have a circuit diagram or assist with the process for this conversion?

On the back panel, beneath the socket that the IEC mains cable plugs into, the legend says 110-240v A.C. so I believe that the unit is already dual-voltage enabled.  the spec sheet on the manufacturers website confirms it is factory configured to work with 90-230 volts. http://www.presonus.com/products/detail.aspx?productid=43
However if you are not prepared to risk trying it I would simply purchase a separate voltage converter capable of delivering 20watts output. In the UK these cost about Ā£10 (AUD$20) and  would be a lot cheaper than wrecking your  kit

Will my Logitech X-230 speakers work in a country with 220-240 V power outlets or would i need an adapter to use them there? If i connect them directly to the 240 V outlet, will they run properly or would...

Check the back of your sub to check your voltage range. You will see something like this: 110V-120V or 110V-220V. If you see the later, you are ready to go. If you see 110-120V only, you will need a power converter to power your speakers as well as any other 110-120V equipment. But no matter what, if it is 110-120V DO NOT PLUG DIRECT TO 220V!! It will blow your speakers. (I lived in Germany for 11 years.)

JBL on stage II speaker doesn't work

If your 120v unit is not marked for use with 220-240v and you plugged it into such a socket (even once), you probably fried the AC adapter and will need to get a replacement.

Unwanted sound from subwoofer.

switch your subwoofer off from the socket for at least 30 minutes and check if the noise is still there,if its still there open it and play a movie then press it lower if the sound stops then you will have to put some toilet papers at the back of it ,thats what I did to mine.
