I'm not an electronics engineer but I've often wondered whether you really need to feed your amp with AC current because as far as I know the power supply changes it to DC as soon as it comes in. So (in MY theory 
and possibly all wrong) if you had enough batteries in series to achieve 120-240V (10-20, which is a lot of batteries) then you could run a perfect DC power supply. And if you used car batteries the current you could supply would be awesome! At a price of say $100.- per battery plus some cables and a charger it wouldn't even be too pricy. The rack of batteries in the living room might be a bit of a hard sell to the missus though
