Power Cable For Multiple Amps?

[PSYKO PHOENIX]

not sure about the earth as it turns 1 power line into 4 powerlines, but mine cost 30 or 40 bucks, bloody worth it tho!! and so is the capacitor, i know people are agansd them and see them as pointless but they are very effective, they keep a more constant voltage and power supply for the amps, your subs wont lose power between fast bass notes there easy to wire and they look good to, smiles allround realy, except for the price!

no worries cheers for the help mate. and yup, i'll be looking into a capacitator for sure. thanks for your help mate.

the bass is just a bit beter ( just a bit ).and beter for the car battery.
and my system isnt that big yet ! just 2 amp's around 1400w max, excl headunit cos i dont use it for the speakers....alot less in rms.
but why spend $$$ for a 1 or 2 farad if you can get 10 farad for less $$$.
and i'm thinking forward when i but beter amp's ( looking for JL audio )
on ebay (usa ) a lot of things are very cheap...even with shippent costs.
all cables are 4 gauge....

You needed a capacitor for a 1400w MAX system?? Thats at best 700wrms, I think you may have electrical problems with your car.

And as for the 10 farad capacitor for $119, what brand is it? Is it a hybrid? For that price its probably cheap junk.

as far as i have read about them on the net, its NOT junk.
the brand is Tsunami.
is it hybrid ??? dont know...
cheak them out on ebay ( usa )
there capacitor's are very cheap...

hey guys, can you also point me in the right direction for earthing multiple amps? Can i run a 4awg or something earth into a distribution block and then run 8awg from there, same as my power? Sorry bout all these questions, frantically getting my car done for my p's on the 13th
Cheers!

Yeah you could do that.....simple and effective, just make sure the earthing point you choose is a good one (i.e. the seatbelt bolt, sanded back).

 

[sweefu]

thanks holdenboy, the new earthing point will be a bolt somewhere in the boot sanded back.
