Can I run a 12v car stereo with cd changer off of one of these ? Mahalo

Not really... Since it's an electronic Transformer it will put a "buzz" in your system. You need a straight transformer such as a large wall wart type.

This power supply will provide 12volts DC at 4 amps, that is 48 watts. I don't know what is required to run your car stereo with cd changer. What are its specs?

I don't know ... it's labeled as an LED driver, rather than an ordinary transformer, and I'm not sure what the difference is. And if the radio/CD changer draws more than 48 watts/4 amps, the driver might eventually burn out.

Yes but you will need a adapter kit ,as with all aftermarket cd players.you will need a filler kit and a wireing harness kit.If you have never hooked up stereo systems in other cars, your best bet would be to buy one from best buy and see if they will put it in for free when you by the player.but if you have or have a friend that has it should be no.problem..about a level 3 .if on a scale 1=10.

No you can't hook up a cd changer to it. Unless you use a changer that will run through an fm station.

No it's not going to work. This unit only works on systems that have both a matter and a slave unit... I don't know what you would use for you're application. Maybe an aftermarket stereo is better.

yes you can, this amp has a speaker switch that lets you run a or b, and a&b;, be careful of ohm drop, though. i don't, i like stereo!

Just like any car stereo. Just run a 12v hot and ground up the roll cage to the head unit, splice in the speaker wires, and jam!!!

I am using it for a car stereo in my built in bbq island so not sure, sorry.

Absolutely. It just replaces the option for a 6-disk changer. The dash CD player still works in my girlfriend's car, where I installed this item.

I think this 12v is just what type of system (auto) the speaker was designed for. There is absolutely no reason a car speaker cannot run off of a home audio (110AC) receiver just as well as it does off of an auto head unit. You never connect the speaker directly to the power, whether that power is a wall socket or car battery.

I don't believe you have the adaptor to plug this 18v device directly into your 12v car. You "could" purchase a small voltage converter that puts out 120volt AC voltage, plug that in and then plug the radio into the converter

I have not tried, but with a long enough connector I would believe you could. There is a connector cable between the radio/single and the multi-changer.

This unit would plug into the cd-changer port at the back of the head unit. You would have to disconnect the cable that is using that port now in order to use this unit.

yes you can. even though it says 13.8v it can be used for any kind of electronic with a 12v DC rated input. The power supply is rated at 13.8v is because a car battery has alot more amps than the power suppy can give from the 120v home outlet so the voltage is raised to compensate for the amp rating. i however would not reccomend using a wire that has a guage than 12, it can definatly burn up the power supply. if you have any more questions feel free to ask.

If u can get it in 8ohms yes, if not u would have to run two in series. Home stereos are usually 8ohm loads per channel

Yes. That's exactly what this device is made for. You can run any electronic device that is made to run from a 12V DC cigarette lighter.

While it supplies 12 volts what matters most is the amps required by your stereo and all (if any) accessories. The charger I have states 5 amps. The radio should list the power draw on its spec sheet. If its minimal you may get lucky but considering it looks like you want to run the radio near a household outlet there are better options that will do what your looking for. You could even consider using an old computer power supply and tap off the 12 volt line. Good luck.
