Capacitors


Stable power supply with capacitors and power caps

The operation of powerful power amplifiers often leads to voltage drops in the vehicle and has a negative effect on the sound quality of the car hi-fi system. So-called powercap capacitors provide a remedy and stabilize this area. The top sellers in this category are: Stinger SELECT SSCAP5M CONDENSER WITH 5 FARAD, Hifonics HFC2000 CONDENSER 2 FARAD, Rockford Fosgate RFC10HB CONDENSER 10 FARAD. If you want to jump straight to the most popular brands, we recommend you take a look at: Stinger Electronics, Hifonics, Rockford Fosgate.

Why are capacitors important?

Capacitors are used to efficiently regulate voltage drops and are often used in combination with an additional battery. A capacitor stores electrical energy and releases it again at a stable voltage. Compared to batteries, capacitors have the advantage that they can release the current more quickly and thus support the amplifier performance.

How do capacitors affect the sound experience?

As the standard power supply in the car is not designed for additional consumers, voltage fluctuations often occur. The voltage buffering associated with a capacitor prevents these fluctuations, which ultimately results in clean audio reproduction without any loss of sound quality. It is important that the capacitor is located as close as possible to the amplifier and that the distance is less than 30 cm.

What do I need to pay attention to when using it?

The capacitor must be pre-charged before it is connected for the first time. Our Masori charging resistor, for example, is used for this purpose. If the capacitor is not pre-charged, the low-resistance battery will supply a high current until the capacitor is fully charged. This leads to extreme ageing of the battery, which significantly shortens its service life. It is also important to ensure a suitable output power and a high capacity (Farad).

Which manufacturers does Masori distribute?

Our range at Masori currently includes capacitors from the following manufacturers: Audio System, ESX, Ground Zero, Hifonics, Masori, Massive Audio, Rockford Fosgate, SECH, Stinger.

Conclusion

Buffer capacitors are a practical addition to avoid voltage fluctuations in the mains supply. Our extensive selection includes numerous models with different output powers and storage capacities. Ultimately, the use of capacitors has a positive effect on the sound quality.
