    Is a Capacitor worth it?

    [ Thats why systems encounter a curve with a peak over time when a sign wave is played over them as the volume is raised. Up to a certain point discharging the battery will lead to less power being delivered to the amp (more than the original output of the Alt.)

    Is a Capacitor worth it?

    No wrong. I'm not talking about the Impedance of the battery, I'm talking about the Batteries current draw from the alternator relative to the draw of the car's other electronics. The Battery's Impedance is a measure of how much current the battery can deliver. (this value will raise with age...

    How the **** could you fit that in anything besides a walled buss?

    Precicely why i'm considering these 2 amps rather than one operating at.6 ohms

    Is a Capacitor worth it?

    While a battery adjusts quicker than an alt, A cap adjusts quicker than a batt. However too quickly to effectively prevent voltage spikes. This is why just as I illustrated above A batt. and a Cap both can end up straining your elec. system more than strengthening it under the right conditions...

    Is a Capacitor worth it?

    Your Batt will only output to a fraction of a volt when there are no forces to recharge it. The voltage regulator is the reason the above diagrams work. In the metaphor, it would be the determining factor in how high on the tank the faucet is located. The electrical system of your car is...

    Bingo, you've just discovered the use of a capacitor.

    Is a Capacitor worth it?

    Because the Batt's resistance is still lowering, although there is now no amp supplying aditional voltage.

    Fully charged... Partially charged... Overly depleted.. Excuse the MS paint.

    Is a Capacitor worth it?

    This is how it works: Think of your alternator as a water pump. And your battery as a reservoir, and your amp as a faucet. The electricity will generally flow the past of least resistance. While your amp is not drawing power, the power generated by your alternator is solely used for charging...

    Why would I run that? USED>> It wouldn't be stable for my Min ohm load and at 2.67 it would put out less than 750Watts. for almost double the price of the JL

    ...Mainly why I wanted to go 2.66 instead of .66 I know that The JL won't have a difference in distortion from that ohm load. JBL is rated at lower ohm loads but no so sure how the distortion acts vs ohm load.

    We'll say 350 max. W6v2's

    correct. Most amps aren't .5 ohm stable. Also I'm looking for extremely low distortion levels, I won't say SQ cause I know some idiots on this forum will jump all over that. But far from a pure SPL oriented system.
