That's awesome! I have a stereo/sub in my garage, but it's my old setup from in the house, LOL. I am a systems admin by trade, so I have a stash of PS's.
Most power supplies have overload protection so a fuse from the psu to the amp is not required. I would only add one if you are using a super old power supply that does have overload protection.
Hey that's a great question! If you have a quality power supply, it should have overload protection built in. Adding a fuse is not required in that case but redundancy is not a bad idea. Better to be safe than sorry. If I were to do this over again, I probably would have added one. I didn't because I just pieced it together with stuff I already had. Thanks for watching!
Sorry about that man, this video was mostly about how to get the power supply to work with a car sound system. But anyway, the amp gets audio data from the "RCA" cables with go from the amp to the radio. The radio also has a small wire that goes to the amp to tell it to "power on" (I added a switch for convenience). Then the amp gets power from the big yellow and black cables that I made by joining a bunch of cables together. That's really all it is. Oh and then there's cables going from the amp to the sub.
I'm sorry the radio turns on but then the amplifier turns on then off I was thinking maybe the ground wire just thinks it's not getting a good ground but the radio does work
@@mineprixelz9697 sounds like it might be going into protect mode. Try searching RUclips for protect mode for your specific amp. My amp is super old so it doesn't have as many safety features as it probably should. Lol

Haha thanks! I was cleaning the garage out once and I found most of these components. Decided I should get them set up rather than collect dust.
Nice work, Moe!
Thanks!
nice sharing. how the sound compare to home audio?
Great question! It sounds better than the sound bar I have at home but probably not as good as an actual home sound system.
It all depends on the components you use
Sick edit
Thanks!
No fuse for the amp or does the powersupply have built in overload? Like a car would have fuse from battery to amp

this is a good video but it wouldve been great if you had more details on the wiring of speakers
Thanks for the feedback!
Did the car stereo heat up when you wired it up with the atx psu power supply?
Nope. Runs great
I had a studio like that
Nice!
You never show how you wire the amp that’s what I wants to know

Different though
Good use of old junk that would have been sitting in garage useless anyway.
Haha yes! But the best part is that it all sounds really good. My expectations were definitely blown away. Thanks for watching!
"subwufer"
😂
It turns off then off
Hey thanks for commenting, not sure what you mean tho.

@@mineprixelz9697 you could also try cleaning the terminals and then rewiring the amp. Good luck man!
