[QUOTE="missinglink, post: 4436162, member: 590831"] When bumpin do your subs get stinky if so your low voltage is clipping out your amp, and getting dirty power to your subs. Low voltage causes your amps to go into protected sooner also. When your voltage drops your subs will still demand the power and your amps will try to compensate for the low voltage. When this happens your amps power just turns to heat and sends heat to your subs. This causes your subs coils to heat up and stink. Keeping higher voltage helps your amps to maintain a more stable cleaner power and efficiency to your subs. I saw some one say lose the cap. (I AGREE) Caps can take more voltage away from your system when they are filling and do not last for more then a few minutes with over 1000 watts. A battery would make a huge advantage over a cap. Caps are for short bursts of power not for a 2000 watt audio set up. MLA [/QUOTE]
