Capacitor (Cap) Question
Hey Guys,
I am replacing my BOSE stock system. I am also going to hook up a Alpine 4 channel amp (55X4 @ 4ohms) to my newly Installed Infinty Highs & Mids and have a question. Do I need a Cap for this amp? I am affraid that the draw on my alternator might be enough to cause my lights to blink. However, I realize that this only really happens when you have a powerful amp (300+ watts) used for pushing subs, but my main concern is protecting my electrical system. I don't want to put a lot of strain on my car's electrical system and I will do anything that is needed to avoid running through batteries & alternators. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
