I've heard you can use a computer power supply to power up an aftermarket car stereo in home.. I need to power up a car stereo from DUAL to test it. The old power supply I have is from a compaq, and it does not have a on/off switch... what wires would I need to splice and connect from the stereo to the psu?
 
i don't know if thats happening either but there are other ways ,, radio shake 120volt to 12v converters ,, just get one for 20$ splice the 12v side 3 wires white black and green , cut the green short you wont need that the white is ground and black is current ,, trust me it is , thats one way, you could also use a car batter charger plug it in put it on 12v charge and there you go red + black - ,, good luck
