car stereo install accessories

[roclist@accessconsulting.ca (Jason Adams)]

1600 watts qualifies as insane.....

200 watts of quality clean clear power is plenty imo...

> I don't know. I know people say caps tend to kill bass, but I run 2 amps,
subs and whatnot. I have 4ga wire from battery to cap, then cap to
distribution block. 8ga from distribution block to amps. Works pretty well,
no headlight dimming or anything. I run 1600watts total. Everything works
fine and personally I don't think caps are a bad idea. I have a monster cap
but lightning audio makes an awesome one. You can usually find a 1farad cap
for bout $30 or so, or one with a digital readout (worth the money) by
lightning audio for about $50. They go $100 and $150 or so new. Just make
sure that the screw holes aren't stripped. A lot of people strip them and
then try to sell them so make sure to ask the seller and guarentee it if you
do go that route.

stiffening cap, and if you're running 4ga power wire you're not running
insane amounts of power...
