Hi- I just bought a Denon 4310 A/V receiver from USA and will be using it in India. Although I bought this piece from US mainly for price difference but now I am very nervous hooking up this expensive unit without a proper voltage step down process. I need the advice of folks who have done similar stuff before. Here are my questions -
1. This reciver is rated at 110 volt and 8.1 Amps. So its roughly 1000 watts. Will a step down transformer with 1500 watts rating will work or I should go with a 2000 watts transformer?
2. Someone in this forum earlier said that its better to go with isolation transformer. Isolation transformer costs almost twice as much as regular ones. Can someone guide me whether isolation transformer is a must or nice to have?
3. Would you recommend that I use this step down transformer along with a voltage stablizer? If so, a voltage stablizer with 1000 watts rating will do or I need to buy as big a stablizer as the transformer?
4. Would you recommend that I should add a power conditioner(to filter out AC line noise) along with the step down transformer? Or it's not necessary.
5. Can someone recommend a good brand/shop to buy quality step down transformer in Hyderabad?
