[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 7085182, member: 549629"] You are correct. Also worth mentioning, much of the perceived benefits of adding a cap (my lights stopped dimming as much, etc) is not because a cap specifically was used, but because a power source/storage device was placed very near the amplifier, minimizing voltage loss due to wire resistance. A relatively low ESR batt placed very near the amp would have a much similar effect, with the benefit of additional storage capacity. [/QUOTE]
