Good day. New here.. Just wanna know if there is a possible way to increase AC voltage, (aside from transformers). Since it possible for AC-DC multipliers.. Thank You.

An audio amplifier does exactly that.Just wanna know if there is a possible way to increase AC voltage
First, Welcome, Livan!
To answer your question, yes, it is possible.
But impractical due to inefficiencies and complexity.
If you will, please let me first ask you some basic questions. I do this since, of course, I have no idea of your current understanding of basic electrical theory, which as you no doubt realize, directly relates to electronics.
It is entirely OK to reference Google (or any other source) that you wish. I do, many times, every day.
Are you familiar with the difference(s) between AC and DC? If so, what is the primary difference?
Are you familiar with Voltage, Current, Resistance and how they interact?
Are you familiar with Ohm's law? If so, just as a quick test, solve for V if R=100ohms and I=1.5amps.
Are you familiar with Inductance? Capacitance? Can you give me an example use for each?
Thanks for being patient. As I am sure you understand, there's no point in going over stuff you already know.
You can resonate an inductor with a capacitor at the lines frequency to increase the voltage. But that can give only a small amount of power with practical size components and the voltage would vary with the load. Also it does not provide isolation from the mains which is normally required for safety. So bottom line is, the resonance approach to increasing AC mains voltage is not generally practical.........................
What about this resonance ckt. thing?
