Looking good so far. Hows it sound w/ the hertz?

Heres a dumb question, what exactly do the capacitors do? Help regulate power? I have one, but dont know if i want to install it?

so far so good with the hertz. def better than the setups ive had in the past. which was like lower end jl rockford and memphis stuff
from what i understand the capcitor stores power and stabilzes voltage for when the amp needs it most..im no audio expert lol

Clean install, I like the way you mounted the components in the door.

Most people would say ditch the cap, but if its working in a smaller install and your not having issues go ahead and leave it. It would be better to have another battery in the rear, because batteries actually hold a charge. Capacitors need to constantly be recharged every second by your electrical system, thus putting more of a strain. Capacitors charge, then discharge, and need to be recharged. Over and over and over.
