Capacitors.. Good or Bad Idea?

Right. I mean i got discounted prices for the capacitor and the wiring, so its not that big of a deal, but yeah dude. I should have read up more on it. Wires and a 1.2 Farad Capacitor for sixty bucks isnt bad... Is it? haha.

Of course, I guess buying a cap to decorate your system makes more sense than buying one thinking it will be a fuctional benefit.

It all depends on how much the wiring was worth - because the cap is not worth a ****.

After doing the big3 I removed my cap and everything was noticably better with dimming so I left my cap off but I left it in the back with the subs/amp... Well when my system got jacked even the theives knew that a cap was worthless even if it was free so they left it!

**** that really helps. Maybe i should just bring it back. I mean it came with 16 feet total of tsunami wiring with it and the ring termals and ****, but I can use that 60 bucks for something much more effective. Like more dynamat... haha.
