http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=281286&highlight=capacitor Yeah ^ i guess this guy asked for all that flaming too by asking how to install something right? Yeah, some of you guys are helpful and give helpful advice (jay and the rest of the people on my first page of posting)...

I duno my friend had the same problem and he said he fixed it by installing a capacitor. I don't see how it would hurt anything. My lights dim only on big bass hits so i dont see what storing a little power when there is some being unused and using it towards those bass hits can hurt.

Yeah the dome and dash lights flicker on bass hits. Think installing a capacitor would help out on this?

For the time being to test the situation i put one of my speakers from the stereo in my room into my car. I think its only 300 watts. It has a speaker up to and a sub down below. Anways i stuck that thing in and it works. But if i turn my volume up my dome and dash lights begin to flash again. I...

I'm pretty confident the ground is good. I used a 4 gauge cable to hook up the power. Not really sure on the size of my alternater. The battery is in pretty good shape and has never died on me (except when i left the lights on that noe time). Its got about 110k miles on it. The car is a 98...

I think the ground looks pretty good. It is clamped onto a bold on the frame of the car pretty good.

Yeah I didn't put that in there, i bought the system used and the guy who had it before me had that in there for some reason and i never thought to check that when i installed it. Anyways, does that mean the fuse had nothing to do with it? Blah, im back to square one. Any other ideas what i can...

My vehicle had been running for a good 20 minutes already. I was just about home at the time it blew out. Also, im a bit worried about the fluid temps because my thermostat must be blown out ( my heat gauge is constantly below C). So your saying the sub need more power then the battery could...

Alright, not really sure what a low voltage drop is, but would it be safe to assume this same problem wouldn't happen if i got those kenwood subs in the future?

Well the power and ground are connected pretty good. Everything else seems to be tight. Also, this may be unrelated but i figured i might as well tell you guys. After i put my stereo in my engine gauges were below cold and my heat seemed to be working less good. I just assumed it was a...

Well those look pretty nice, so im actually leaning towards those right now. I'm hesitant to buy new subs until i know why these ones blew out though. Don't want to have my new ones go too. So what would you guys say the problem was? I had my stereo on about 15 volume, and then i heard my subs...

Hmm turns out the subs are shot. Hooked them up downstairs and they just come though as static for the most part. Blah. The amps seems to be ok though. The lights all turn on anyways. So what should i get for my new subwoofers? I'm hoping i can get a pair of 12 inch subs for under 100 dollars...

I would only put one in, just replace my old box with it. I know it wouldnt be a kick *** system or anything but im just wonding if it would be worth putting in as a filler? I have a feeling the amp will just beat the crap out of it though... don't want to ruin them

Alright before i put this out there, i have a feeling it's a dumb idea. Thats why i came here first before doing it lol. Alright i just blew out my subs tonight, and I won't have money for replacements until late march at the earliest (thats right im already spending my tax money lol). Anyways...
