Okay guys, i was sitting in class last week and i had an idea..... screw using a headunit in my car.... i thought i would hook up my desktop with all my music on it by using a converter...(which i already have) and from the the line out from the comp run that to my amp (which i dont have yet due to the fact my buddy fried mine). i think it would all work.... my question is would my computer and my 15inch monitor take a sh** ton of power from my battery and would it be bad for my alternator? and would i have enough power to hook up the 5000 watt boss amp i want to get in the summer? and my last question is would the computer have a strong enough i guess you would say signal to to my amp to serve as a headunit.....( i dont really know how to word dat lol ) i would appreciate your guys imput before i go and fry my electrical system in my car lol thanx
yup, a lot of people do that, i think electro was thinking of doing that at one time as well. If my memory serves me correctly one guy was using a lillput. check this thread: http://www.caraudiotalk.com/audio-forum/showthread.php?t=6165
I wonder if you would be better off building a computer for the car. A power supply like this http://www.mini-box.com/M2-ATX-160w-Intelligent-Automotive-DC-DC-Power-Supply is designed for the car A motherboard like the Intel Atom 330 D945GCLF2 might be a good choice for the car http://www.intel.com/products/deskt...-D945GCLF2D/D945GCLF2-D945GCLF2D-overview.htm ccullen already mentioned the Lilliput Touch Screen, a good example http://www.lilliputweb.net/product6.html I'm gonna do more research into this
