110 (or 120) vs 220

Hi,

IF an amp can operate at both 110 and 220, and a dedicated circuit is being installed for that amp, is there an advantage to a 220 v circuit? Or is the answer "it depends on the amp"? Or is the answer simply "no"?

You might be thinking of 3 phase 120 and 220 is single phase Alan
