    This is from shizzzon from another topic like this Now from my experience, caps are a good "buffer" for electrical systems that don't have alot of current passing through, like SQ systems and Tirefryr and SO RIGHT. capacitors are marketed to "stop your lights from dimming" and that is not true cap will ADD stress to the system

    Need some info!!

    Well welcome to the forum and hope you get the help your looking for. What kind of budget are your working with? this will determin what will be going into your setup. The whole mainstream product thing isn't necessarily a bad thing unless you don't know what you are doing with box building and installs. I prefer underground over mainstream companies. (SSA, sundown, Incriminator audio, Fi audio just to name a few.)\ I can guarantee that you will spend less money getting "underground" companies likes the ones listed above and be much happier, than spending that same money and going to your local shop and getting a lot less product

    x2. for a proper setup actually worth something, your going to spend more than $200. the amp and wiring alone will be about that much

    Wiring Questions

    ya that is the knu in white right? that stuff is SUPER thick and hard to work with, the other stuff though the mroe expensive stuff is SO Much easier to use! i am refering to the Kolossus Fleks Kable the knu white stuff the cheaper stuff is a pain to work with i find! also if you notice in the second pic how easy the black wire bent compared to the white wire! yes i've heard that the pearl white stuff is harder to use. i was using the pic as an comparison to other cable. the kolossus flex is the cable to go with

    subwoofer unloading

    This is my Theory of what happens. subs have a Fs which is the the free air resonant frequency of the speaker. if a sub has a Fs of 35 hz and you tune your box to 35 hz. the speaker will resonant at that frequency. tuning a box to far below that like 28hz, 25hz or something like that, I might not have the right kind of pressure to keep the speaker from hitting it's Xmech, which is the max mechanical excursion of the speaker. that's why you might hear stories of people say there 1500watt sub blew out on 900watts of power. because the speaker bottomed out and reach it's Xmech because of tuning below Fs. The only issue is......why is tuning below Fs bad? In other words, why are frequencies below Fs bad but frequencies above it aren't? Your car has a resonating frequency, does it fall apart if you play a note below it? If tuning below Fs is bad, what are we to do with the Sundown Nightshade, which has an Fs of 43 hz? The 12" FI BTL also has an Fs of 39 hz. Also, how about all of those home theater subwoofer enclosures that are tuned way low, like 12-15 hz? Those are definitely below 99% of all subs' Fs. My point is that there isn't anything wrong with tuning below Fs. The problem with running into mechanical limits can occur at any frequency with the right amount of power. Even above tuning frequency and Fs. your totally right with the right power, you can go all day tuning below Fs. I have some MTX subs i'm using for home theatre and play as low as 15 hz or lower tones sometimes in movies. with no problem. but you have to get the power right.
