Gary, If you do this you are going to toast your CD player. I suppose you are thinking because the VA that it will be ok. It won't.

Your CD is not desinged to handle the higher voltage . This is really no different that taking a 120 volt microwave and trying to plug it into 240 volt source; and I know you wouldn't want to do that. The only difference here is amps for household stuff and milliamps for your electronics. Same result though; you get to go and get a new one.
