Hi I have got my old 6*9s and car stereo in my room as music player.  
 
I have a power adapter connected and its not that powerful, goes off with too much bass, what is the ideal adapter power ratings to go by?  
 
Current  
 
230v 
50hz 
140mA 
10v 1.2a

Get a power supply from a desktop computer, usually does the trick

I've got one of these, 3A which should be loads.  If in doubt see if there's a fuse on the back of the radio.
