    Its cheap for a reason, you can also get cheap amps for non-vehicle use and they will be better and the speakers wont need cabinets built etc

    It's cheap because it's Chinese crap, but it will more than suffice for what the OP wants.
    Feel free to link to a domestic amp that the OP can get for £20 new.

    The one the OP posted to is a 30RMS at 4ohms, if they go for a proper set of speakers they are normally 8ohms so only 15RMS output.
    The math is a little bit more complex than simply dividing by two.

    Problem with car speakers is that they often have very low impedance
    They are designed that way for a reason.

    Of cause it matters if it runs off a DC battery or AC mains, it will need an adapter to run.
    I guess it's just as well that one is included with the amp that the OP is asking about.
    Understeer is when you hit a wall with the front of your car
    Oversteer is when you hit a wall with the back of your car
    Horsepower is how fast your car hits the wall
    Torque is how far your car sends the wall across the field once you've hit it

    First thing you'll need if playing music in the workplace is a PRS licence, that is of course assuming H&S will tolerate the idea in the first place.

    Hope you are not singing along, as then you will need a performance licence too http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1220423/Corner-store-worker-told-stop-singing-works--pay-licence.html

    What a horrible and nasty organization!

    There is royalty free music :)
