If the mains cable for the amp is designed for 120 volts, it will handle 240
volts. The current is 1/2 at 240 volts, so you could actually make the
cable smaller.
Regarding voltage rating, each wire is 120 volts to ground, so the
insulation need be no higher than for 120 volts (insulation between wires is
doubled because both wires are insulated.
