Loud hum in Beepre

[Grainger49]

There are what is called a constant voltage transformer.  It includes a tuned circuit, lots of reactance that keeps the voltage at the specified voltage. 

You could get one of those or a power regenerator and set it to 240V.  Either way the voltage to your stereo will not vary.

Sorry, but neither answer is inexpensive.  Well, not to me.

245V is not an issue on the 240V transformer.

Hi Paul and Grainger,

Thanks you for you response.

I'm a bit reserved using a constantant voltage transformator. I tried a isolating transformer on the Beepre to filter out trash coming with the AC current. It made the sound completely dead.

Glad to hear I can use 245 volt. Could you give an indicating how much power the Beepre is using? It helps me picking a suitable transfomer.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Jeroen

I suspect that the BeePre is somewhere around 60VA, as always, leave a bit of headroom (so maybe 70-100VA).

Dear Paul,

Thank you for your response. I've just found a transformer that will do the job.

I will post some pictures of the finished Beepre soon.


Regards,

Jeroen
