That's correct... in dual mono config.
Are there any major differences from what is already in the GS-X MK2 power supply?

Thinking of picking one up but was wondering if one can change voltage easily. Reason being I’ll be staying in uk for a few years but will be hopefully returning to the US.

Very easy. There are jumpers in the PSU that you can adjust to 115 or 230V and Justin labelled them pretty clearly as well.

Well perhaps not that easy...below is the 240 volt ( which I have for sale https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/headamp-gs-x-mk2-silver.17553/ )

Looking at the jumper settings changing 240 to 110 needs some extra Jumpers but pin 3 looks like it has no connection ?

Plus you need to solder.

Can someone post a 110 volt photo so we can see the difference ?

Just picked up a used polished red GS-X MKII. I'm hoping it will drive the DCA Expanse better than the Benchmark HPA4. The HPA4 is just too soft for the Expanse, even though it outputs 6 Watts.

I have notice that the bass sounds flabby on the GS-X MKII with the Expanse. Anyone know why? I'm running on high gain and using the Gustard R26 through the XLR input.
