The power supply will use the european power automatically ... you just 
have to get the right power cord. It plugs right into the back, no 
funky adaptors needed. (Writing this on exactly such a setup now ...) 
as far as the rest of your equipment ... it depends ...  my dat deck 
requires an adaptor, but my monitor doesn't ...
