Hi guys,

Just got my RM20B in the post! I'm in the UK and I ordered it from the US. Now I know that the voltage is different over here, it is 240V that we use. The amp has a small fuse on the back that apparently I have to use to select the correct voltage. Problem is, the manual is really unclear about which one's which and at the moment I don't want to turn it on for fear of putting the wrong voltage through it. The manual says "line up the correct country voltage to the small arrow". Now if you look on the back of your amp, the AC selector bad is a square plastic bit with 100, 120, 220 and 240 written on it. The arrow is directly beneath this square and points upwards. Now I am confused as to whether I should select 240 nearest to this arrow as in picture 1:

or facing upright as in picture 2:

Can MTS users in the UK verify which is the correct setting, or if another setting is correct? A posted picture would be useful to clear up any confusion

Thanks!

AFAIK the little arrow should be pointing at the Voltage you want to use, hence the 1st picture is correct.
 
thanks for the reply, i thought that would be the most sensible option but always worht checking before wrecking!
