You will ruin your speakers. The ohms are different. Home speakers are not rated the same as car speakers.

You have to buy a ac to dc converter, make sure you get one with enough amperage to power the amp tho.. look on ebay i saw some on there other than that i dont know where any stores are with them, if you find out let me know

Fitted amp to my car radio whistling noise when engine on?

"as some others here answered you can use it in your house on but you have to make sure your " regular speakers can handle the power .. most specs are on the back of the speaker box so that's easy to check ..
Next part is a bit harder .you can get an adapter but it will have to be designed to handle the high drain the amp will have .. and unless properly filtered you will always hear a hum from your house AC current .
You can look at for power supplies similar to ones used by CB or Ham radio operators but I imagine you would need at least 20 to 30 amps .. this could run you up to $100 .PYRAMID is a maker that comes to mind
check your amp and see what the power draw is .. it should give that info on the label ...your looking for amps not watts ..
again as I said you might get a hum but if you play your music loud enough you wont hear it anyway .

Is there a sub enclosure for a 1992 ford ranger?

I wouldn't do it... it's really a pain in the ***. it involves batteries and converters and all sorts of great stuff. In addition, most home speakers are rated at 8 ohms and up, so your car amplifier will lose a great deal of power.

How do I install my pioneer cd player in my boat?

Yes you can and it will not damage your speakers as long as you wire the speakers properly. The problem is you will need some kind of power supply that provides 14.4 V (optimal) DC. You could try searching for "AC to DC converter" or "DC Power Supply."

How do i get the code for the radio in a N reg ford escort?


As far as the speaker wiring I'm assuming your car amp is going to be 4 ohms and your home speakers are going to be 8 ohms (that's the standard for home speakers but you can buy 4 and 6 ohm speakers). Assuming 8 ohm speakers wire them in series and your amplifier will see a 4 ohm load. See the links below for instructions. You can match almost any amp to any set of speakers - its all in the wiring.
