Use a PC switchmode power supply?


To make it sound REALLY crappy ?


I've run a lot of audio gear off of PC power supplies without bad things
happening.

Car audio stuff is pretty happy running off of the 12 volt lines, which have
pretty impressive current ratings.


Car power rails are massively noisy so if course they're designed to cope with
that.


I've seen a lot of switchmode supplies in DVD players and the like.


So ? You can make an SMPS very quiet if you know how. I do for example.
