I am stunned that that little computer power supply didn't fry as soon as you let it loose!

That's totally cool!

You really don't need much ..

I have about 4 old AT power supplies. Far more than enough to power a deck, even an amplifier.

Its nice to have the new ATX ones since they have a resetable fuse/temperature turn off so that you don't fry them!

but in theory 400W computer power supply
P = IV, I = 400/12 = 33.3 AMPS
but of course the effiency and such.

My friend is running his JBL600.1 on a 400 watt power supply that claims to put out 15A@12 volts, my supply claims 20A.

Big power supplys are fun. I have three 90A supplies, I can pop the circuit breakers out in the garage with most big amplifiers...hehehe..

Nice work!
