    But I've moved to Canada and the voltage here is 120V. Anyone know it I'd get away with using them 'as is' without a transformer?
    Cheers.

    From the manual:

    •Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The required voltage is printed on
    the name plate of the device.

    Sometimes the voltage can be switched internally. You could ask a technician.

    I was thinking that but I doubt it. I may just 'splash out' on a transformer. $60 or so here. A bit steep for what it is but if it lasts I suppose it'll be worth it.

    You should ask Yamaha - if it has internal voltage switching - it's a lot better than buying a transformer.
