[QUOTE="Mike Diack, post: 202512, member: 144"] Yes, but for other reasons. The Xti would work in the higher voltage regime, but it would be bloody awful. Xtis are particularly sensitive to undervolt situations and even with a 10% drop in mains, they cannot achieve anything like a decent output. The clever little MCU controlled clip counter starts overachieving and compresses the output to within an inch of its life. Put one of these amps on a variac and reduce the mains a little (not a lot in 230v lands or the other scenario will come into play), and you'll see the output duck and dive astonishingly. In light duty (never go near clip) situations they would be happy. [/QUOTE]
