Capacitor Question

Also, is it ok if the ring terminal on the positive touch each other? From the battery to cap, then from amp to cap.

Can you get me like a manual or something for the big3? Another comment, on my old 94 BMW 525i I would not dim period. If I put my highbeam on with my lowbeam i'd just dim a bit. But this newer car is just insane. Its not like 500watts rms is a lot or anything.

Do you know how to tune amps? I'm swapping my sub out for the DVC version, and getting another one. I want my amp tuned by someone knowing what they're doing. Also, do you build boxes?

Would he give me like a estimate or something? for 2 12" mtx 9500 ported. I want the box built for SPL.

I tuned my amp right now just by sound :/ I don't think I did a bad job. Although it sounds bad when it doesn't bounce off anything (when the truck is open it sounds bad) But as soon as the truck is closed it sounds great.
