Step One - Control the power

As mentioned earlier, your primary cause of concern with this DIY project is frying your woofer by running it on 110 volts, when it is designed to only run on the 12 volts generated by the battery of your car. Thus, the first thing you must do when trying to convert your car's subwoofer for home use is buying a power inverter that will enable you to control the power.

You need a power inverter that is capable of converting 12 volts, with 2 plugs: one plug for the woofer and the other for the wall outlet. Although, you need to keep in mind that despite the fact that your first step is buying a power inverter, the last step will be plugging it.

Step Two - Connect the subwoofer to the car amplifier

The next thing you need to do is taking a twelve- or sixteen-gauge speaker wire (this depends on the model of your subwoofer, so check the specifications of the manufacturer if you are unsure of which exact one to utilize).

Connect your subwoofer and amplifier to the wires. The wires can be connected to the brackets beneath the terminals on the appliances. Keep in mind that the red wires must be twisted with red wires and the dark wires must be twisted with dark wires. Although, you may need to first strip the wires.
