Read it about capacitors: http://www.squidoo.com/caraudiocapacitor This page give 3 farads for your amps but you use it on 4 ohms then 1,5 farads can do the job! Use both batteries will help you also! |

New member Username: Pcarl2000Post Number: 3 Registered: Sep-10 | I am also running a red top battery with a 200 farad capacitor block so i am way covered on power for anything I could want to cram in my truck. I'm only working with a single cab f 150. Custom consule box between bucket seats. its still a work in progress. I have another solo x to put in, but I'm already having window seal problems with just one!~ |

I just know that most people (that I've talked to) on here agree with Glass. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and if you disagree with what he wrote, talk to him, not me. |

Platinum Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 14882 Registered: Jan-08 | Eric It's no me which posted the link: http://www.glasswolf.net/papers/nocaplesson.html The amplifier will give you more db without capacitor but if you search for sound quality the capacitor is the best choice. Hi-fi or becibels? you can choose! |
