    Yes but of course you will need a step down transformer, and a rather hefty one to match the power rating of the sub

    Before anyone suggests it, it apparently cannot be easily rewired for another mains voltage. According to the service manual, both the transformer and the electrical chassis are different between EU/GB and USA/CAN/Taiwan types. So the only option is the step down transformer, but I don't know how feasible it is at those power levels.

    I suppose a service centre could replace the transformer and chassis to essentially convert it to another type, but it must be terribly expensive.
