Ah, ok

On the supplied unit I actually have a terminal block soldered in which only allows for two wires. There are no markings on this.

On the rhs next to the single pot there is a three way connection, marked input 1, input 2 and gnd. Even though the plug isn't supplied could this be the input. PCBs is supposed to be a stero unit
 
Ebay listing says 18v to 32v so possibly not, might just work or under-voltage protection might cause shutdown. On full voltage at max stated output 80+80+160W = ~ 10Amp supply.
If you are handy at hacking things and have some old PC supplies knocking around, use 2 x 12v ATX supplies in series (you need to lift the PCB ground of one of them to avoid a short).

Hello RUSSC

the seller of the amp has this on eBay which he suggests is suitable for the amp, only issue is that it works of 12 volts.

If I get this unit what rating of 12 v supply will I need. I have a 12v, 5 amp jobbie knocking around, will this be enough

I now see why it pays to do some research as the power supply is or proving to be difficult if I don't go down his route
