To Cap or Not?

To Cap or Not?
Interested to hear your guys feelings on running a capacitor? I will be running one 5 channel amp Alpine PDX5 and have 4 midrange speakers and two 10" subs under rear seat of my truck. I keep hearing mixed reviews but want to now if they are necessary when putting together my system. Thanks

Well given the total system power you have and the fact that you have a heavy duty vehicle with dual batteries and a high output alternator (they always are in those vehicles)...my opinion is you don't need a cap.

a properly designed DC electrical system will never have a capacitor in it PERIOD.
but in the real world poorly designed systems are rampant (or electrical compromises are made) then a capacitor could perform a useful function.
a circuit with too much capacitance will be unstable under steady state or transient conditions (yes there is such a thing as too much capacitance)

Perhaps then since you know so much about DC circuitry you should be designing them properly and selling them as amplifiers named "VROOM"
