Well, an opportunity came up for me to work in Hong Kong, so I am moving my whole family over there in a few months. I have never been to Hong Kong nor do I speak the local language.
What should I do with all my 110v audio stuff? Everything in my profile is 110v. Is there any place in HK where I can get a step-down transformer? Or, is it better to get my amps adjusted to 220v while I am still state-side? if I do that I guess I wouldn't be able to use my stuff until I get to HK.
How easy is it to buy audio stuff while in HK? What about ordering from the US?
How expensive are similar audio equipments selling in HK as compared to those sold in the U.S.? I am thinking along the lines of Ayre, Mac, EMM, dCS, Devore, Shindo, Lamm, etc. (yes the pay in HK is decent, so I am reaching for the good stuff - assuming I get the green light from wife
Any headphone stores in HK?
What else should I be aware of when I move? e.g. how to pack electronics for container shipping, etc
