heya

i have a 800 watt amp and i want to conect a psu

but i am confused on wt watt psu i should buy

what do u recommened

[YOUWANNASMACKDKHEAD]

if you want to be able to power your amp to quite a high volume id go for a 500watt psu at least if u can get hold of a cheap 750watt gaming psu tho go with one of them but in england ther like 160$ so i only got a cheap one. still worked fine

@YOUWANNASMACKDKHEAD when you have to find out which of the 2 blacks connect can you just connect both into the ground on your amp and the yellow one?

[YOUWANNASMACKDKHEAD]

from further experience any of the black wires should work.

i tryed this and my psu came on the turned off eny help??

[YOUWANNASMACKDKHEAD]

psu not powerful enough? what Watt is it,. and try turning the psu on without the amp attatched by just looping the green and black wire on the big connector and if it still does it then the psu is no good.

The problem with using a psu is you do not get pure dc. That causes the components in the amplifier to break down over time drastically reducing the life of your amplifier, receiver.
