What is the purpose of keeping the home stereo? A little more info is
needed on your objectives to give you the right answer. Are you just
buying the 12v product for the CD player? If so, get a car stereo
with amplifier outputs and use RCA cables from the CD player to the
CD input on your receiver. You can still use the volume and other
functions on the 12v unit, merely leave the home receiver on.
