Most electronic equipment can be handled by upmarket convertors which will switch the frequency and voltage.

Having said that, might be easier to get the internal power supplies changed when you move to the US... the power unit in stuff like DVD players is just converting the AC down to a low voltage DC supply in most cases. (Which often makes the frequency issue irrelevant ... unless you have some weird equipment that is using the frequency as a clock ..)

In short .. yeah, voltage convertors will usually work.
