Is the 1124 sold in the U.S. capable of running on 230/240v?

Could someone please tell me if the 1124 sold in the us, is capable of running on 230/240v? I see there are some available in the store, but I need to make sure I can use them before I order.

I suspect not, as the European version (at least in 2004) has a 220-240V only power supply. It is possible that they changed to a universal supply more recently, but you would need confirmation of that from the seller. The FBQ2496 has a universal 90-240V supply.

Ok, could someone with an US model actually take a look at the rear of their 1124 and see.

I looked at the back of my 1124 the other day, and it does NOT have an input voltage switch. This is the US model, and it said something like 60Hz ~110-120 VAC. I was specifically looking for such a switch, as I was reading this thread at the time. I believe my unit is dated from 2001. I didn't check my 2004 unit specifically, but it's been identical to the 2001 model in every other way.

I'm moved these posts to their own new thread.

Thanks for replys and PM's. I have ordered 2. If I need transformers, that's not a big deal. Hopefully they will run on 50Hz. I'm also going to try a third 2496 tomorrow. Behringer said that the first 2 that failed, came from the same batch. So they actually had hopes for this third one Well we'll see.
