[QUOTE="dirtbagz89, post: 4842744, member: 578535"] Ok. I'm sorta new to this stuff but learning slowly but surely. I just completed my 2nd head unit install on a 2008 Pontiac G5. The head unit is a [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_6914_--+CLOSEOUT--+--+JVC+KD-SH1000.html"]JVC KD-SH1000 [/URL] I bought from SonicElectronix for $150. My speakers I'm keeping stock...they sound **** good for stock. Nice and loud. My friend hooked me up with: 2 12" subs - both are 600 watts peak and 300 rms (MTX and JL Audio) A box for them A 1600 watt blitz audio BZA-2460 sub amp all for $60 So for all this he said I should by a capacitor...so I went out and bought one that came in an amp kit. The kit doesn't say anything about hooking up 2 ring terminals to the capacitor on both the positive or negative connections. And it doesn't come with extra so it seems like they want me to put 2 wires in one ring terminal. (4 gauge wire going from battery to cap, another going from cap to amp...then 6 gauge going from cap to amp, and another from cap to ground.) So do I need to get 2 more ring terminals?....I wouldn't think you would put 2 wires in one terminal...don't seem like they would fit anyhow. Do I even need a capacitor? [/QUOTE]
