Hi looking for some ideas as to which 4ch amp to get. I'm looking to get Hertz DSK 165.3 & 130.3, read up seems to be coming in the best to replace the stock speakers unless you have any other suggestions for speakers. I use the boot fair bit to chuck everything in including the dog, so plan is to house the amp in with spare wheel if can get one small enough

Power cap ? Lloyd imo why do you have such poo ?

I added 5 farad cap. result bass much deeper tighter less boomy.

 

why do you think one of my hi fi amps has 40,000mf of power supply capacitance.

the higher farad in a car is due to lower voltage.

Ears have never been the same after around 133 db

Short of a secondary, isolated battery (charge only - no engine drain), they can be a useful addition. Many however, leave a lot to be desired...

i've never been a fan of capacitors myself for bigger installations, i prefer to use a uprated alternator and/or a split charging system.. but to be fair there is more than one way to skin a cat as they say..

 

i'm certain my hearing is starting to fail, i work with large pa systems and various sound stuff for massive outdoor events/theatre/festivals etc and i'm sure the sound pressure levels ive been exposed to has damaged my hearing

I did the 90's in various fields clubs and my car.

If theres much background noise I can hardly hear these days.

I paid about 250 for the power cap. I think they had just come out for car audio. Iirc it was a monster cap. I bet they are about tuppence hapenny these days
