Capacitor function as a distribution block in a way?

[The Silverman 10+ year member]

i using a prefab sealed box
4 12 kicker comps in this box

4 Hole 12'' All Top Compact Sealed Subwoofer Enclosure Box

powered by a rd2200 and big and 200 amp alt it just sound shitty i swear it must be the box

1. Comps generally sound like ***

2. Minimum recommended volume sealed for comps is 2.25 so yeah that box is off...

it has to be the subs right

Its a combination of everything...

If u dont wanna upgrade ur electrical...u need to get low power everything so that u dont run into this kind of problems.. run ur speakers off the HU and get urself a single low power sub so that u dont harm anything..

if u want ur shit to slam u need to upgrade ur electrical accordingly...a cap isnt necessarily an upgrade...

Well i think at this point, i plan on installing the big 3.
but that leads me back to my original question. can the cap function as a distribution block in the way i mentioned? or will i still need a dedicated distribution block?

I'm sure it can be used as one but i recommend getting rid of the cap and buying a distribution block....

To the OP a good distro is only about 30$ shipped from knukonceptz.com at that price I wouldnt bother with trying to half *** a distro block off a cap.

Car Audio Wire Take your pick

Thanks skittles and all others who answered my question. i'll go ahead and go with a distribution block just to be sure. i also just found out that i have a guy who can get me a semi professional install for little or nothing so that'll help ease my mind a lot.

a big three and alt should help a bit. youd need a good batt to compliment the alt though. i would never do an alt before a battery unless it was all the same time. I think you may have some bad connections. A big three with one bad connection will ruin the whole thing.
