yes, you will just need a diferent power cord to fit the outlet.

does the mpc have a voltage switch? ie. dual voltage (like a computer powersupply) it says on the back 100-240? does that mean that it has an auto switch? at that point you could buy a computer powercable at dixons when you get to the airport...


but if doesnt..

US voltage is 120 VAC. English voltage is 240 volt so you would need a converter to change the 120 volt US voltage to the 240 volt UK voltage in order to plug the US product into a UK outlet. IE. a step down transformer.

the transformer pack should also have the pronged output below.

radio shack has em.

As the guys say...all you need is the right powercord
