easiest way i have found,
wire sound system to your head unit,
plug in 3.5mm jack into aux input sorted

no as you need a decent 12v power supply

You'll need an amp for the sub. So you can either connect the sub to a home audio amp (mine started shaking the doors and glass shower door was rattling like mad) or you can connect to a car amp.

Difficult to power a car amp indoors as you need 12V so either you'll need a transformer or it may be possible to power it using a computer power supply. Can't remember how but I remember an article or forum came up on google about it.

Be careful if your connecting a car speaker to a house/pc the ohms on car speakers is different and could end up blowing your amp.
