oh yeah that can be done all you need is a power supply that can get you 12 v you just need to twist the remote cable to the power cable and hook it up and it will work great

Live life 2 the full cuz u only live once!
confusing....
just sounds like basic installation...
Humanity my mirror,
Madness what I see
That's one of the most basic things ever to do it's just like in a car cept hteres no seats and stuff to get i the way.
iv'e got an old sound board from my local car stereo shop and i've put lots of used acr sound gear in it. i put it in a semi sound proof room and it measures close to the 135 Db mark with the 4 12" subs playing with 1 yes one pair of alpine r series 51/4" splits to supply the tunes and it sounds awesome!
Depending on how much power you want to run, you can use a power supply like the ones Kepco makes:

or get a 110 volt amp worthy of your high power subs:

i dunno if this would be cheaper but i paid around 40 dollars for a car battery charger and it worked great. all i did was connected the red wire to the power wire and the black wire the the ground wire. then i got the remote wire and put it into the power terminal.

i know im kinda diggin this up from the grave but i was jus wonderin if you use the battery charger does it have to be a specific kind like amp or volt wise and would u need an inline fuse for it like you would with a car?

I also want to hook up my amp in my house but i have no idea what to do with the ground or RCA cables
Great as long as your amp doesn't need more than 2A. A dedicated power supply as mentioned by maylar is the way to do it properly.Originally Posted by lilpnoybreaker
