Try it and see. You are unlikely to damage it unless it is a DC
adapter and you accidentally reverse the polarity. It may work fine
on 12 volts.

If the adapter is an AC type it may still work with DC in - since most
use a full wave bridge to convert the AC to DC and the FWB will steer
the polarity so it gets to the amp in the right polarity.
