UK NAC 202 in US?

Hi all! Here in the US, have a 120V power supply (Flatcap 2), wanting to know if a UK preamp will work here if the power supply is 120V? Seller says he has used it here in the US and that " since the power supply is external, there is no difference. The problem is with linear power supplies, in which the transformer winding must be of a specific length for the incoming voltage. SMPS power supplies are almost always universal." But just making sure.

The 202 doesn’t have a voltage. You power it with a US voltage hicap or flatcap, or from a US voltage 200.

You’re good with the US FlatCap.

Yes, I’m aware it doesn’t have any internal power, getting its power from the PSU. Just making sure I can use a UK preamp with a US 120V power supply.

Thanks!

The preamps are global and powered from a local voltage power supply. So there isn’t a UK/US/EU variant of a 202.
