I bought a used one since I can’t ship a brand new one here in Fiji. It was a 9 out of 10 condition but when I received it, it was good as new 񵐮 Speaker is really loud 󽠠. Best thing about it is I can use 8 x AA size batteries 🔋. Aux input and so many other features that I love 💕.

Does it work with 220 volt ?

Does it work with 220 volt ?
Asked by: Wilson
The AC power adapter included with the EK-50L is for 110V since B&H is a US dealer. You can use a step-down voltage transformer such as the Watson VCG-SD50 50 Watt Step-Down International Voltage Transformer (B&H # WAVCSD50) combined with the included power supply. The step-down transformer will convert the 220V power from your wall outlet to 110V in order to operate with the original Korg power adapter. The other option is to get a compatible 220V power adapter through Korg or an authorized Korg dealer in your country.
