Car audio?

[moddedfreakycanuck]

Ok, this may be the dumbest thing posted here but here goes... how hard would it be to incorporate a car audio deck into a modded PC case? Also what kind of power requirements would it need? Help a brother out peeps! :?

How hard? Nothing is impossible, but it isnt exactly easy. I dont believe the dimensions line up properly, I dont know of the power requirements of each headunit. You may have to look that put deep in a Pioneer/Sony/Alpine/etc manual somewhere. Whatever it is it probably is DC, and most likely discoverable using a multimeter, but it may not be 12 volts DC.

Those units do put out some decent heat, so to keep the rest of your case cool you'll have to cool that too. And then we get to connecting the audio/video from the reciever to wherever, which means if you want it to amplify/process audio from your PC you'll have to get one with auxilary in, then figure out how the wires work to get them out to your speakers, which isnt hard. Probably in the manual that comes with the reciever.

It will be a job, but not impossible. Hardest things I see is power requirements and fitting it inside the case.
