Can you not convert the euro plug to a UK mains plug type?

Sorry, how do you mean ?

Oh you mean one of those little adaptors ?

The page you lined says it comes with a DC power supply. If it has a euro plug on the end then you have two choices.

1) Cut it off and wire up a 13A UK mains plug with a suitable( probably 3A) fuse.

2) Get a Euro to UK adaptor.

If it didn't come with a power supply then provided the power supply you choose has enough current at 12v then it 'should' be fine.

Yes it did come with a DC power supply , and it has 2 pins , so I'm out shopping on tuesday and will pick up an adaptor

EDIT: OK so I got the Amp up and running through my sound card ( see below) with my DT 770 pro headphones and wow...what a difference

I do have to have the sound card volume set around 50% though or I get a very low "tut" noise here and there
