[QUOTE="F16Fxer4real, post: 26248, member: 542561"] at what point does your "advice" have any consistency? Or, at what point can you see that electrical principles can be applied to OTHER electrical situations? RavE, any major brand (Rockford, Lightening Audio, etc.,etc.) is going to be about the same. The cap is simply going to stiffen your voltage supply and try to give your amp a more consistent voltage supply. They are designed for rapid charge/discharge where as your battery is more inclined to a slow regulated charge. As your amp is wanting fast current at a bass note, the cap will help deliever. I've used Esoteric, Rockford, and even some "generic" brands but they are all probably made at a few places and just labeled by the distibutor or what have you. For a 1 farad cap plan on spending anywhere from 60 to 150 and it will all depend on what kind of connection you want and if it has the digital readout which really isn't important. Check Ebay as they are on there ALL THE TIME for 69 or 79 dollars. [/QUOTE]
