Rikhav, my amp is a Class A/B (Luxman 505UX) and the reason I use a step down is because the champagne gold finish was only available in the Japanese model which is 100V.. Since I bought the amp more for the finish and the colour of the VU meters, I have to use the step down.. The step down transformer is custom made from Logicstat in Delhi and it does give out a constant 100V.. However the power in my area is bad and I have a mains voltage transformer on that room and also the amp is connected to a light plug and not a power plug... So in general, the power being supplied to the amp is not very good and hence a big difference in the SQ..It is the only weak point in the system but I am helpless right now....
