Not a problem at all - they get used in a lot of boats and caravans.
For home you need a suitable 12v supply (check for power requirements
- Tandy or Maplin should be able to help) and and aerial if you want
to use the radio.

However - you need to build some sort of case for it and also some
sort of boxes for your speakers if they're going to sound any good.
To be honest you're probably better of selling what you've got on eBay
and putting the money towards a seperates system from somewhere like
Richer Sounds. They'd almost certainly get you something that looked
better, sounded better and was more convenient for no more than £200.

I knew a guy who did. To get the power down from 240v to 12 @ 30amp (this is
the main problem, most adaptors run @ only a few milliamps) was pretty
expensive. The solution used was to get a small car battery and have a £10
trickle charger on it permanently, this kept the battery topped up when not
in use. I could personally think of better ways to setup home hi-fi )
