Capacitors are good for only one thing: providing a momentary hit of very deep bass. If you listen to Rap music or compete in sound-offs, you may need a 1 farad cap depending on how powerful your amp is that is driving the subs. More important is the battery. A cap is not a substitute for a battery. If you are using two or more amplifiers and you don't want the dash light to dim during musial passages, you may want to add a second battery. The best for car audio is a GELL Cell with rapid recycle capability. To add a second battery, try to avoid sales people who push battery isolators. The best way is to add a relay. Cables only make a difference if they are well insulated. Gold plated plugs won't corrode in New England climate. Since you come from Providence I suggest a short trip to Franklin St. in Warren (rt.136, right on Franklin, Awesome sound on your left)See Rick. (401)245-2900 no Wed.
