hmm... I found Primax Soundstorm 120W speakers from trash-bin.

but power supply was missing.

I'm just wondering what kind of power supply (volts, amps...) I could try with speakers.

something which doesn't

a) broke power supply
b) broke speakers

I've some 9V power supply's with different amp values... but I don't
want to broke them for just trying if speakers are working at all.

I tried to look from internet for speaker's power supply info, but I didn't found any.

and yes, hello to everyone !

I'm new here.

The amperege doesn't matter, the speakers will only use up whatever current they want to. 9v is a good voltage to start off with. I would try 12v as the next step if 9v turns out to be too little.

so I could try speakers with 500 mA power supply with 9 voltages output ?

or nearly similar. I think most of my power supply's give from 200 mA to 1500 mA.

and there isn't danger that power supply gets damaged if

example it is not giving enough mA's ?

yes. I got speakers working with 9V power supply.

atleast so far they've working ok.

there isn't really bass much, but since I got these for free, it doesn't matter.

thanks for help!
