Question applying amp in home setting

ok, so i havent used my system in a couple years and would like to power it in a home application, ive been looking around and have read at several places it could be powered by a PC power supply if the amp rating was under 30 or 35 or so, i understand that but exactly how do you connect the amplifier to the power supply, im only used to car app;ication where you connect the positive and the ground to their respective posts. if it makes any difference its an old PG300.2 i think the fuse is rated 25...i think...its boxed up atm but how does that wiring work out ?

In that post it explains that you end-up with a bundle of yellow wires joined toguether..that's the positive to your amp; the bundle of black wires goes to the grond wire on your amp; and i think it says in the post you are left with one yellow wire..that one goes to your amp's turn-on wire.
