Ended up with an auto cassette deck 100 watts. Anybody ever hack one to make an amp?

Never tried it, but I imagine if you found the route that the mag head takes to the amp you could tap in there if you cut out the head not entirely sure how the feed engages you may have to press play... Lol

Thanks Keith. I think I've figured out where the play connection is so I can hack in a switch. I just thought that 100 amp car stereo would make a nice amp. I have it all out of it's metal housing so one of these days I get to it and let ya know if it works.

Please do! those things are like 5 for 99c at goodwill or junkyards
