[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 3989877, member: 584344"] We're trying to help your sound system excell at it's maximum capability. Don't get all PMS-ey (No offense to any females) because we gave you our opinions, which are backed by facts. If you think a Cap. is good, then you're followed in the group that thinks the 'Gain' setting is just volume.... You can "wast" your money, all you want. But, we're telling you, it's fruitless. (That means it's worthless, incase you didn't know). The basic fact, normal capacitors are about 1 Farad, I've seen up to 10 Farad. An average battery has 10,000 or more Farads.... and, if you do the math, are considerably less than a capacitor. The only things caps do is look pretty and make it look like you know more than you do. Someone told me I needed one so my lights didn't dim. As it is now, they don't and I'm running 1K RMS off stock wires, stock alt, and a Duralast Gold bat. Capacitors are useless, bro. Sorry to tell you. But, as everyone else said, "The red wire goes to red terminal, black wire goes to black terminal" Go figure. Oh, and by the way. I think I can speak for everyone when I say: [B]YOU AREN'T WELCOME.[/B] Take this knowledge and leave with your ignorance and lack of will to learn and accept anyone else's [B]KNOWLEDGE[/B]. If you don't wanna learn, please just disconnect yourself from our community. Thanks. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
