The fact of the matter is they do work for their intended purpose, which is to filter noise and help maintain a constant voltage feeding the amp. They work so well 100% of amplifiers on the market have caps inside them. Things get kinda wonky when people expect the moon &amp; stars when they install a cap...they don't do that and are of no use in SPL applications. But if you're having some lights dim a little bit or would like your amp to have a little more headroom (unregulated), the good ones work.Since you're a Chevy-man (my apologies) I'm sure you're aware of how poor some of the vehicle grounds are on their trucks &amp; SUVs. A cap will not fix that issue and were never meant to solve penny-pinching by the OEMs.</blockquote>
