Question:
My cap did not come with a resisotr or a light bulb, It has a built in voltmeter with digital reader. Can I sumply connect the system as if I were about to use it but not turn on the system. Let the circuit basically remain closed but not turning on the audio system to so there isn't a sudden rush of power. The current rush would be slower as the amp isn't using any power.
Answers:
How would I hook up a new amp and sub to an already aftermarket setup powered by a 200 watt amp?
Any 12 volt light will do.Ever wonder how to set the gains or what size power wire to use?
In rare and circumstantial cases, a cap actually helps. I can say this with full confidence as I'm running one in my car and have seen a definite change using an oscilloscope to test the theory.
Should I get a 2 way or 3 way?
In my case, my electrical system had a 4 volt gain in the whole voltage drop out when a significant bass track was played using a the cap as opposed to not using it.
Why do my headlights dim when my sub-woofers start to hit?
My specs:
How would this amp be with these subs?
alternator: 75 amps (stock)
audio system: 400 watts RMS (total)
cap: 1.5 Farad
current draw of accessories in car: 30 amps (total, everything on except audio system)
I have a 94 mercury sable and I need to know the color of the speaker wires?
Somewhere in these numbers lies the truth to my success, I'm working on a formula to find this. The problem is no two cars are the same as I've added fog lights to my car which changes things from stock. So there can never be an "all-around" method to determine the usefulness of a cap. So the formula I come up with will be just for my car.
I'm also running a few experiments of my own to determine if a cap also increase the life expectancy of the audio equipment as well.
Any subs louder than soundstream splx for less money?
only if you want to take care of the damage it could cause.Where do high-pass capacitors and low pass inductors go between the amp and subwoofer?
Well that's not so bad, simply use any bulb I recommend Christmas lightning bulbs, or a dc continuity tester, or just go to radio shack and buy a resistor, they are very cheap.Sell the capacitor. It's hurting your alternator more than it's helping (which is, none).
Jl w3 v2 ..and jl w3v3 sub..which is better?
To reap the benefits that caps are sold for (marketing scam, don't waste your money, people!):
Do the Big3 Upgrade (power -charge- wire from alt. to battery, ground wire from batt. to frame, and ground wire from frame to engine block) all in 4g wire or bigger.
Dimming headlights, voltage drop, and overheating amps will be a thing of the past.
Good Luck!
