Pioneer 12v DC turntable

[admin_exported]

Hi everyone, i'm new here, i have recently been given a Pioneer PL-Z93 turntable which requires 12v DC supply, it was originally part of a full Pioneer system, i want to connect this up to my amp but my amp doesn't have a 12v input, is there a way to plug this into the mains (UK) with some sort of transformer or adapter and if so can anyone point me in the right direction. I'm desperate to listen to my Vinyl again.

Many thanks in advance.

Yes ther is indeed a way.

You want one of these:-

I use one on camping holidays to plug the 12v coolbox into!

Thanks but i'm not sure that is what i'm looking for because the Turntable has a 5.5mm jack that would need to plug into the supply??

Then you need one of these if you can find one from a UK site.

Thank you for your help, i've found some of them adaptors on ebay so i think that will work, after speaking to a friend last night he suggested a 12v ac/dc adapter (which i already have) cutting the 5.5mm jack off the turntable and cutting the jack off the ac/dc adapter and joining the wires, any electricians out there? would that work??
