Andy, It depends on the definition of "quite a bit." The power supply is designed for a minimum line frequency of 50Hz. Higher line frequency will cause no harm. Low voltage input of 15% below nominal or so will start to reduce power output. High voltage input above nominal of about 15% will cause a fault condition in the amplifier.
