[QUOTE="S1n1sta, post: 2007328, member: 569503"] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maybe if you werent 25% dumber than the rest of us you would realize that a cap is merely meant to help deliver a steady current to your amp. Keyword: "HELP" A cap is not gonna solve any problems or really improve performance. It's merely there for the one or 2 times your amp needs more power than it is getting. Like a really loud bass note or a sound competition. If your current never drops below that point, GOOD FOR YOU!!! DONT GET A CAP!!! But if you havent spent hundreds on getting a new alternator and battery, a cap can really help. Although it is very limited and shortlived help, it does work. Just dont be fooled by advertising. Around here I have never seen a cap advertised, i had to import one from jhb. I bet you americans have all kinds of corporations advertising how awesome caps are and try to sell them to you at rediculous prices. Truth is, a cap is a very simple thing that you find in lots of everyday items, and should come cheap. If you are charged more than $50 for a 1 farad cap, I would also be telling people not to buy them. By the way, what are your prices for caps around there? [/QUOTE]
