    Ok guess Im dating my age by asking this question, but here goes... I have a bomb ass speaker set up in the grand prix. Have 2 12'' comp. speakers in a box with at momment, only a 1000 watt amp. The stereo is a piece of ****, but a want to put my 3000 watt amp on the box. But as it is I have to run system with out any bass channels on, cause keep blowing fuses. yes I know its cause the amp is under powered. I need a compasitor to reg my power wattage. does anyone have a fairly cheap cap that is no longer being used, an needs to push 3000watt amp

    Just to spark your interest so you ask the right questions: 1) 6.5" speaker produced 140+ decibels 2) two 12" subs with "500 watts" produced 148 decibels.

    There's more to loud speakers than adding power...it's also design efficiency.

    Http://www.bcae1.com

    That's a good start. I apologize if this seems condescending but it answers a lot more than I want to explain and you care to see in a single post

    Lastly...caps = useless
