[QUOTE="x1le, post: 6676874, member: 596028"] I read it. Who cares. The kid you're arguing with seems smart, just doesn't know the facts 100%. It's true - caps discharge in an effort to prevent large voltage spikes and re-charge the rest of the time. However, the problem is that most caps roughly take 3 times as long to re-charge as they do to discharge. So if you have bass notes constantly, the cap is doing nothing but sitting there drained trying to re-charge yet still discharging. So in other words, it's not helping. [/QUOTE]
