Hello. Thanks for the reply. Sorry for my ignorance and confusion, but at the back of the unit there is a female 2 pin which I thought was the mains feed, hence my question. There is also a lead attached to the rear of the unit with a male 2 pin attached. Is this the mains feed or is this plugged into other units as their mains supply?

Hello. I have just acquired a Beolab 1700 amplifier. It didn't arrive with a mains lead. On the back of the unit is the socket which will take a 2 pin male plug. This looks very dangerous as I will have to connect using a 2 pin male plug which will have live pins. I assume that some form of adaptor must be used to make it safe to use in the UK.
