Wow Razlaw, I'll bet those '28s are spectacular!!  If possible could you share the info on the back of the Emerge? I don't think there would be any differences between the EU version and the North American version but I would feel better if I knew for sure.  I sent the Copenhagen Airport store an email but I haven't heard back.

Thank you for everyone's input, it's really appreciated.

What info specifically are you looking for? They are in my office at work and can look at them tomorrow.

@Razlaw, confirm for @idua (1) whether they use wall-wart power block & USB-C cable, or internal power supply & figure-8 AC cord; (2a) if internal look on the bottom for the legend following the word "INPUT"; (2b) if wall-wart look on the plug-side for the legend following the word "INPUT".

Then if you're willing, for me/others and if it's a wall-wart, the multiple legends following the word "OUTPUTS".  (That's a bit of typing so if I cannot impose, then just the highest-voltage/wattage one should be enough to divine the rest.)  Thanks!

I think the main thing (I'm not an expert at all) is the voltage. I guessing the EU & North America are both 120 volts. Thank you for your help, I hope I hear back from B & O Copenhagen. If one of those two Emerge's you have start to hurt your eyes let me know and I'll help you out.

[No, only North America is 120 volts.  EU is 220 volts.  That's the whole point of the single power brick and its "INPUT" legend.  See below.]

Here's a photo of the Level's USB-PD 45watt power block, just for comparison.  Hope the resolution is enough to read it; you may have to click the link for full size.  Above is the back side of the slide-in power prongs that clip onto the block.  (If it's identical, it'll save @Razlaw some typing!)

Great info! So if I'm understanding correctly,  if I find an Emerge in the EU I will need a North American switching adapter.

Sorry it was unclear: *IF* the Emerge uses a USB power supply, likely it's similar to the one above, which is a *universal* power supply.  Universal?  Yes, you can read from its "INPUT" specs, it will accept anything from 100volts AC (Japan) up thru 240volts AC (United Kingdom), and 50 Hertz (Europe) thru 60 Hz (elsewhere).  That power supply would normally come with prong sets for US, EU, and UK electric, which are nothing but big solid wires in a plastic holder that slides into the slots of that power brick.  If you get the wrong prongs (which you will from the EU) because it's nothing but wires, all you need is a cheap adapter plug that turns two round prongs into the standard North American flat prongs.  Worth your time & trouble: Read the brief introduction at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity .

Therefore, the only case in which you would buy a North American switching adapter is if B&O cheaped out and Emerge doesn't come with a universal supply but rather comes with a single-voltage INPUT (220V only).  This is possible but unlikely.  (Or, as stated above, if it has an AC power cord and its own internal power, in which case you need to check those INPUT specs, on the bottom of the unit.)  You'll know for sure once Razlaw takes a look.

My wall plugs look exactly like the one in the picture above.
