As is  normal- I do not take much that Measures says as gospel- How many 
pieces  of equipment, wired for 220 or 240, have you seen that have 
internal 120  usage? I have one dryer that has a 220 heater and lights 
and timers that  run on 120. Do all your amps use 220 to the PS and to 
the fans? Not  many.

ALL modern day amplifiers that run on 240v that is to say (2 hots and a  
bond) run their 120v acc's off the center tap of the dual primary transformer  
windings and one leg of the 120v incoming.  They do NOT use bond to carry  any 
currents.
