Amp Question

#397084

Post by 615Weazel »

I have a question about capacitors on an amp. I have mixed thoughts about the idea. I've read some stuff that they aren't liked a lot for several reasons. Some friends of mine are talking about how much they'll help in running there amps, but I'm not agreeing with them. Could I have some y'alls opinion on them . We are talking about amps that are 500 size and down. Most of the stuff I've heard people running them on is big amps like a sweetsixteen size.

I believe you are talking about those big inline caps they use on car stereo amplifiers. I have heard of them being used but a good charging system in the vehicle would be more worth the money spent than getting those caps.

Yes sir the more I've read about them the more I can agree. I actually found the same topic from previous on the board . I do appreciate the reply back.
