[QUOTE="Frankensuby, post: 2640729, member: 569869"] Essplain? I was told that a cap should only be used as a tool to reduce alternator spikeage through creating a 'pool' of energy that refills slower than the immediate hit an amp uses. Knowing that usually amps also have a small form of capacitor, and I apparently am exceeding that, I would assume the 1 farad would help, specifically since the dimming is not caused by the length of the bass note, just the initial introduction. If I even out that introduction, it should help, no? If I'm wrong, I'd like to know, because the cap would be taking up room [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
