I would not go the step up transformer route, I would install a new 240V line for that amp, given its power consumption.
You may, or may not, run into ground loop problems with such a mixed setup, but that would be a problem for later.
Pretty much any additional transformer will affect the sound, most likely in negative way... unless it is a 10kVA or at least 5000VA model. Which will be a HUGE boat anchor.
A new line would be a far more elegant solution... provided you are not too far from the panel.
