Car stereo @ home

Yo.

So, I was getting pissed of that I didnt have a working CD player in my house anymore, so , I did the 'normal' thing . .. I made one from old stuff i had sitting around, collecting dust . 

I had an old Pioneer car deck unit, from an old car, that worked perfectly, just no car to put it in . 

SO .. ..  I took an walwart power supply, [12v /DC ]  wired the stereo's ground [black] to ground on the walwart ; and the yellow/red to the positive of the harness from the stereo to the walwart power supply .  Then, connected a pair of speakers to it . [connect the rear or fronts to ground, and positive on speakers ] . I made a little box out of a pine box of wood, some glue, and paint . nothing crazy ... just wanted something, that didnt look too horrible [not sure i really did any better .. BTW ] 

Paint came out a lil wavy , but i dont care . its a small shelf unit, I didnt spend $100+ for something i already had, and it has usb + CD and I could add more speakers . :) 

I just figured I would share . speakers are old, and crackling , would not suggest buying alpine type rs .. as they all seem to end up in that state .. crackling, broken , and sounding like crap for $200 speakers .  But, unless I crank it, you really dont hear the awful .

let me know what you think, if anyone cares.

Thanks,
