I am actually trying to start a hobby/side job doing custom audio builds. I.e. enclosures, sub floor amp mounting, etc. Not that I need the money, but that I enjoy mobile audio along with woodworking. Hence wanting to start something to relate to my interests and help other people enjoy their audio products a little more.

I'm actually not a big fan of cap's. When I was younger I use to run them when I didnt need them. Usually just for looks.

I just think caps are really inefficient. Sure they store energy and can release it very quickly, but after 2 or 3 times of your frequencies hitting around 20-30 Hz. your cap is done and needs to be charged up again making your battery work just as hard trying to charge your cap while still powering your amp.

I am no audiophile by any means but I do teach math and physics at WVU so I understand the process of most electrical components. I bet if you changed your cap to an ext. battery you would see a huge improvement in your electrical components.

I bet those JL's do sound good. Have any pics to share?
