just wondering if anybody know how i could possibly wire a car stereo to be powered by a regular 120v plug in my home. just been experimenting here, i have a adapter that goes from a home plug to cigarette lighter adapter and i wired it to a deck but it shuts down at high volume
anything helps
thank you

You just need a power supply rated for more current... It'll work fine.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Yea you would set it up normally just as you would in a car, just make sure you have a DC power supply with enough amperage an it will be fine.
