I blew up my receiver. Now what?


I brought my Integra DTM7 to Europe. Plugged it in, and POP! I discovered that unlike my other electronics, it definitely could not handle 220v wall current. Smoke poured from the vents for a while, even though I immediately unplugged it. 
So:

1. What did I break? A fuse? A capacitor? Everything?

2. What’s the best way to get it back up and running here in Europe?

thanks!

Better the receiver then you receiving 220 volts, it is after all, just a receiver. The only thing in my home that runs on 220 volts is the electric water heater and and there is a severe warning about about electric shock that can kill. Always check your component's set voltage. Too bad it wasn't switchable.
