pc power supply can use , coz it's ouput 12V , yellow colour is 12 V , and the black colour is 0V (ground) , but i think u use AT type is better , coz more easier to setup.

what is AT type??
and comp power supply has 3 color wires which are red yellow n black.. how to connect?

use Pentium 1 PSU , ignore red colour 1 , use yellow and balck colour

my advise is dont use pc power supply... not enough power thus will burn your stuff.... becareuful, use a AC to DC power supply...

PC PSU output 12V around 5 amperes (min), cd player need 3 amperes only , i think should b ok. if use amp then connot already.

correct me if i m wrong.

a normal pc power supply 12v will be around 10A to 15A ... wouldnt it be too big?

bigger Ampere is better , cannot smaller than ur HU required only .
