Tutorial: Using a Car Amp in Home

[BobChestnut]

no it is an atx soft power psu but it was an older one. I have a wire that did the same function but it wasn't green i later found that wire by looking on another psu. the wire conects to the main motherboard plug 1 ping to the right of the clip. In my case it was black.
I personally think that using car audio this way in home is very good my car audio speakers have a lot better sound then any thing ever put in a tv and its fair compared to some home theathers.

im putting my 250W 118DB sub/amp combo in my room hooked up to my TV when i get my new amp, that should piss off the parents and neighbors considerably

Damn, I had those two computer towers in the bed of my truck for weeks, wanting to throw them out. When I read this thread I decided to keep the power supplies, I should have taken them out right away! Somebody must have stole them from my truck while I was out somewhere because they're gone.

If I remember right,they said 230V which would be almost 20A, so I could hook up two in parallel to get 40A?

CBFryman, how did you run a 40A amplifier, didn't it blow the fuses in your house?

[CBFryman]

1.) there are no fuses 30a circut breakers to the one outlet which all of my stereo gets its power from, 2.) they are 2 300w power supples, each draws maybe 4a@120v.
