My Denon CD Player has euro 2 pin plug. The machine is set for UK voltage.

Can someone link me a decent 3 Pin Plug Adaptor. I know there's many on ebay etc. But any particular good ones worth chasing after?

Thanks.

Some would say you should use a dedicated Schuko wall socket (which would be illegal in a ring main). I don't; one of my CD players uses a Euro 2-pin plug of the same style as are used on electric shavers. For those one can buy special UK 3-pin fused plugs, which allow the 2-pin plug to be fitted inside.

Otherwise, just use a Europlug to UK plug adaptor readily available from most hardware shops.

I was going to suggest that one, and it would be perfectly suitable as is the type I showed above, though the latter are more expensive.
