How to hook up a car amplifier w/subs at home

[GymkhAnA251]

ANSWER PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!HOW MANY WATTS DOES THE PSU NEED

[Ruinoz]

@GymkhAnA251 It all depends on your amplifier and the power you want to bring out of your speakers and/or subwoofers.

Nice video tutorial. Anyone that wants to know about the on off switch you can put one on the power input or on the remote control it's self and it will turn off the amp. But the psu block has an existing on/off Switch witch will turn off and on any thing connected to it. Plus I don't think you should leave your PSU on all the time even if you put a switch to power off the amp. As the continuous current might damage your PSU. so just use the existing switch on the PSU!!!

[ArchGoth]

Can i put a switch between remote and power input, and would it be able to turn the amp off?

[Ruinoz]

@ArchGoth just turn off your psu, dont let your psu be on for no reason.

[ArchGoth]

@Ruinoz thanks for an answer, but the question is related to my car battery, not my psu. I have 2x100w amp but i don't have car stereo(i don't need it, because of phone mp3, laptop computer), so i need a switch or amp will dry my car battery. I tried putting the switch between PWR and RMT and it worked if anyone else have the same question.

MUTE!!

Okay, i'm planning to use Sony Xplod 600 Watts Amp(XM-GTX6042) plus a 1000 Watts Xplod woofer in my home. Can somebody suggest how much rated PC SMPS should i use? and tell me how to hook them up pls.?

[mrparadise212]

so you can just plug the rca straight into the amp im thinking about this to add a sub to my logitech Z623s with a headphone splitter will this work ( 3.5 come out of computer --> goes to splitter ---> sends one cable to z623s and one cable to rca---> into the amp)?

[Ruinoz]

@mrparadise212 it would be possible but i dont recommend you to do it. the quality will be weak and you wont have full sound capacity from your sub

[ablmnt1921]

First off great tutorial!

Now I have a question, my amp is 1200 w, my subs are 900, about how big does my psu have to be, or as long as its not bigger than the amp?

[gremlingamer1]

My speakers are only playing bass how can i make them play regular speaker sound?

[Ruinoz]

@gremlingamer1 try to put your amps crossover to full mode

tell me if it works

[djblackarrow]

A little tip to all:

I would bring together several wires in order to avoid overloading the wires. Depending on the computer power supply, the currents can be present in two to four digit height!

For example, 4 yellow wires and 4 black wires. Yellow = positive, black = negative.

do u like BASSS

[CameronHughes99]

Great video, very informative and worked a treat thanks!

[TheDjHazza]

Hi, i have a 2x12 inch 1800w edge subwoofer. The fuse is rated 25amp. Please could you suggest a PSU fo me to use? Thanks!

[djblackarrow]

@TheDjHazza: If the power amplifier has a 25A fuse, you must not provide 25 amps.

My Silver Rave DS 9504 (4 x 50W RMS) has 2 x 20A fuses. I am pursuing it with a halogen 12V 200VA transformer at 16A. About one B40C35 bridge rectifier made​of metal and a few capacitors, my performance is always enough. I only have one Powerzone Series Noxx-kicker connected on a single channel. I hear the bass countless houses away, around the next corner and roads. Distance: about 150 to 200 meters.

[Londontuner]

i have 7 black wires do i have connect all of them

[Ruinoz]

@Londontuner

One black wire should be attached to the green wire (both coming from the motherboard)

the other black wire going in the amplifier should come from the motherboard as well (one black wire)

[sickinthe606]

Best tutorial, very simple. Thanks.



[GMX1Pred4t0r]

GUYS im advicing u !!

yellow = 12v

black = Gnd {negatif}

red = 5v

orrange = 3.3v

[teejay100able]

@1:59 fell the base ? 

[TapouT227]

one quick question, i have everything great but after about a minute of use on a low volume, the power supply shuts off with the amp.

any help would be be great thank you so much

[teejay100able]

@TapouT227 u need more psu

[TapouT227]

@teejay100able i need more power supply unit? please elaborate

thank you in advance.

[teejay100able]

@TapouT227 ya u need one more power supply unit..

[Smecherul89]

10x it help.

[bigbenITA]

emm..I don't think that one single yellow wire and one single black wire are enough, you should cut as many wires as you can, I'm using a 4 gauge wire for a single 500RMS. . .

[EvilheartJD]

check my page for my home set up + car deck installing

[qmp5]

boss. js. this kid is a boss.

[dewey173]

where does the power come from is it ac or dc plz help if its dc wont the battery run down easliy please help

[Ruinoz]

@dewey173

the input power is AC and the output power is DC. a PSU function in this set up is to "convert" AC to DC in order to play your car amplifier without the use of a car battery. cheers

[teb4198]

Bro, i just open my computers psu and i saw the motherboard and there is a lot of black wires. which on should i cut? Can someone answer me please?

[Ruinoz]

@teb4198

any blackwire from the motherboard. dont forget that one black wire should be connected with the green wire from the motherboard as well in order to turn on your psu.

[mwjustic]

first time iv gotten to use my 4 channel amp. thanks now i'm about to have the baddest home theater system ever!

[GSHWIZZLEDWIZZLE007]

hey Ruinoz wat type of wire did u use to connect the remote and power with

[Ruinoz]

@GSHWIZZLEDWIZZLE007

i use 24 gauge wire.

they can be purchased at any store seling electronic stuff

[djblackarrow]

@GSHWIZZLEDWIZZLE007: The remote terminal is a control input. He turns on the power amplifier. The remote connection requires only a few micro to milliamperes. It reaches a wire with a cross section of 0.75 mm2 or less.

[NCorrigan2014]

hi, ive done everything you said and the amp still doesnt turn on... is there any particular wire i need for the 3-5 cm wire?

[Ruinoz]

@NCorrigan2014

is your psu turning on?

[NCorrigan2014]

@Ruinoz yes i got it to turn on. I dont know if it is my fuse because i wired it right but my fuse is shot. Do i need a new one?



[Ruinoz]

@NCorrigan2014 yes you need working fuses.

also, the amperage of your amplifier must be greater than the amperage of your psu otherwise you will keep burning the fuses because of high output. if it still dosent work, then you must check out if you wired everything up correctly and if it still dosent work then maybe your amp is not working.

[NCorrigan2014]

@Ruinoz okay thanks i got my amp on and workin, but how would i connect my sub to a home theater receiver or somethin? i plugged it in the comp. and i sounded like crap kinda

[bashoeb123]

Great!!!! It worked perfectly Thanks alot

[mrparadise212]

so all i need is any psu it dosent matter the wattage and i can just use any old speakers?

[Ruinoz]

@mrparadise212

the wattage does matter. if you are using an amplifier and sub that requires high wattage, you will need a good psu. it all depends on you amplifier. from your amp, you will be able to set the output power

no problemo friend! if any questions, let me know

[x0XBenDoverX0x]

@Ruinoz how big of a psu did you use?

[Ruinoz]

@x0XBenDoverX0x

i run my 2x12 MTX subs on a 680 watt psu at 240 watt

[YourMjm]

haha haha

so ebay works in afghan or not.

In pakistan car amp ar vry expensve vry vry i buy mine for 400$

[YourMjm]

thnx runiz.

@YourMjm

No problem !

im from afghanistan hehe, thumbs up!

[YourMjm]

runioz u r great......thnx aloat.

[YourMjm]

thnx .....

If i connect my amp of 4500 watt to 600watt psu then it will run but not at its maximum...but it will run atleast better than small amps like 600 wat etc am i right...

[Ruinoz]

@YourMjm

Yes your amplifier will power on but you will have to reduce the output level of the gain switch on your amplifer otherwise you might burn your psu.

[Ruinoz]

you will need to know your amp's RMS power at 2 channel (in order to hook up one sub and one speaker). 4500 watt is way to high for a single PSU so maybe if you connect more than one PSU together to maximize your supplied power then you might reach 4500 watt. I recommand you to buy a weaker amplifier that gives around 600 watt RMS. Then you can buy any PSU around 600 watt on ebay

[YourMjm]

plzzz help me.

[YourMjm]

i have 4500 watt amp what psu is needed to power it plz rply.
