In general are these wallwart units safe to use ? also the USA power supply actual has an IEC kettle plug ie 3 pin - would this be compatible with a two pin step down and am I likely to induce hum of any sorts ?
Many thanks for your advice ..

The smallest ones that seem to come like that are the next size up, 100W -

- which are approaching half-brick size again.
But you can also get the 45W type with a blind hole in the casing. Technically that isn't quite right since it means the cable and probably the casing of the power supply won't be earthed, but it has no real bearing on the safety of the power supply since the outlets aren't earthed (or it would cause a ground loop with your amp).
You'll actually find a marked hole on the casing of the 2-pin ones that you can drill through if you want...
