If I were going to the trouble to pull the wire, I'd run 220V. You give yourself the option of using a heavier amplifier in the future, and less voltage drop (twice as much on 120V). You can always use the neutral and one side for 120V now if you really are stuck on it, and use both side of the line, minus the neutral later if you need it. Remember the amplifier output is 600 Watts, the input is well over 1KW. What do the lights in your bathroom do when you or the xyl turn on a hair dryer? Mine dim. Same thing will happen voltage wise when you key the amp.
