[QUOTE="Hades2004, post: 745111, member: 558394"] I have never heard of someone asking if they could use a PC power supply for home audio. I think it's probably impossible. The reason why I say this is cause how would you use a 20pin or 24pin main power for the stuff, while you have 8 4pin perisbale *i can't spell* for hard drives and that, and then you have a 4pin power for the CPU, 6pin for PCI-Express video cards, and a AUX power cable. I don't know if it's possible to use a PC PSU for home audio. The reason why I say this is cause i've been building computers for about 3 or 4 years now and you can't power up a PSU without a motherboard to it. Even know it's plugged into the wall. Maybe it's possible but I haven't found a way yet. But if you did find a way, how long would it last? They aren't designed for home audio. Only for computers. [/QUOTE]
