new home new power.

I know that my power amps can be easily re-connected for the 220V operation. Can I use AC dedicated socket for the power amplifiers?

I've degree in electronics and can perform a job of an electrician as well. Currently my 220V socket doesn't have a locking receptacle but it will have it soon as well as male plug will be replaced accordingly. 20amps for 220V is so good enough that its even more than 30amps for 110V. Do your math and multiply the values to compare the power handled. I believe that even 15A for such circuit is more than enough. I also spoke with Bea from VTL(I own VTL MB100) and she also said that re-connecting for 220V operation for these amps will be beneficial and more efficient.
