I've attached pictures of the power supply for my Yamaha MW10 mixer.. as you can see it uses a European plug, which up to now I've been using in conjunction with a UK adapter.. I was just wondering about the feasibility of snipping the European plug off and attaching a UK plug, is this advisable or should I continue with the current set-up of using the adapter. If it is possible to swap out the plug, is there any considerations I need to be aware of before I do it, aside from the basics of wiring a plug, with which I have no problem.

thanks
