Hi I'm thinking of purchasing a beogram from Europe and getting it shipped to America. Its a 4002 and I have a MMC20CL waiting for it! 

Am I correct in thinking that there is a toggle switch in the beogram that that allows it to be used with the America 110 voltage?

Does the motor automatically switch from 50/60 Hz?

If my assumptions are correct, would I ultimately only need a fork converter and its ready to go...?!?! 

Seems too simple, but then again, B&O are brilliant :)

Let me know guys, thank you!

It depends on the exact version of the Beogram.
Some were made for one mains voltage only but so far I have only seen this on some 110V versions.
All european versions I've seen so far had the rotary voltage setting switch at the bottom.
And yes, the motor etc. is electronically controlled so will work on both 50Hz and 60Hz.
