Swizzy-

Look up "line bucking transformer" or similar. If I remember right, it is a setup where you use something like a 6-volt, 4-amp output (in this case) transformer in a wiring setup where the six volts gets subtracted from the input (122 volts in your case). Such a transformer should cost a lot less than a Variac, for ongoing use of your set.
