Class 2 only means that there is no earth connection from the power socket to the equipment. My experience says use any ac adaptor that gives the same output or better mA, for example provided the output is 9V DC you could safely use a 2A unit or even higher, what it mustn\ufffdt be is lower in mA.
Note that an adaptor may not say specifically that it is class 2 but if it has two concentric squares, i.e. one square inside another, it is class 2 this symbol designates it so.
