I had my XPA-2 bench tested at Emotiva when I had a repair issue. One side was 304 watts and the other 306 watts according the the test results that were provided.

Would running the amp on 230v mains (AU) instead of 110v increase the available power with lower distortion?

I would trust the guys on this forum. If they say it's 300 I'd say it's a pretty good bet they are . As Mr. Garbulky stated about watts verus decibel ..50 watts isn't going to make a world of difference..There is a calculation and hopefully someone else with more knowledge will jump in.. I have the rtia9's up front with a PA-7 (350 watts a channel ) ..I love the extra headroom...The Rtia9's are rated 50-500 so they do like wattage..You can't go wrong with Emotiva amps.. I know I'm late to the party but in case anyone is still interested, if you compare 250watts to 300watts output power with all other parameters being equal, you will get an increase of only .79dB SPL. |

Of course, but if the 110 volt supply is not running out of amps then changing to a 230 volt supply won't make any difference. Cheers Gary |
