The power supply in either a guitar amplifier or in a professional sound amp reduces the 110v alternating current to a direct current. Also it reduces the voltage that can be used by the speakers, usually 12+ volts. Also if there where no power supply and there could be a possible way of reducing the voltage that could be used in the same was a direct current, you would here a constant phasing type noise from the current alternating. A power supply unit converts power that can be used in correctly in sound frequencies.

Can you hook up an amplifier for a car to a AV receiver for a home theatre system?
It depends on the specific models of each, but typically, Yes. Of course you will need a 12VDC power supply for the amplifier, though. You will also need a AV receiver with a preamp output. You cannot run speaker level outputs into the input of an amplifier.

Yes, an amplifier can be operated on ac supply.
What gauge wire do you need for?
