does anyone know anything about powercaps
soz m8 only thing i know about power caps is they r used to boost the signal i think so the amp so it runs better(don't quote me on that tho coz cud b wrong)
i thought they where for the power feed
powercaps are designed to give back up power to your amp, so if your car is not running the alt, the powercap gives the extra power. this meaning that your amp will have consistant power going to it. (no flat spots)
how would you wire it up to the amp then
the power cap sits after before your amp. what happens is, the power cable feeds the power cap then that feeds the amp, this way the power gets the power first, so when you get a flat spot the power cap feeds extra power to the amp via the + feed to the amp.
so it just connects up with both feed and out put togeither on the top of the power cap
power cable from battery to pos on powercap, neg off powercap to pos on the amp/or to the fused block connector (if running more then one amp)
you really dont need a power cap unless you are doing a serious install
more then one amp
1 1000wamp and 1 450 w amp
heavy duty battery and a better alternator will be needed too. then a 1 farrad power cap should see you right.
