[QUOTE="B_Master_Flash, post: 409029, member: 552262"] The higer voltage is going to the amp, the more output it will be capable of. When there is a big bass hit, the alternator cannot power the entire thing so the rest of the power has to come from the battery, which means you will be going from the 13.5-14.4v of the alternator to the 12v of the battery which will be less voltage to the amp and give less power to the sub and less SPL. The capacitor is supposed to keep the voltage higher than 12v even when the alternator is not capable. Do they work? I don't know anyone that has made their system louder w/ capacitors. [/QUOTE]
