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 power cap 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 for efficient Regulation of 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 this has the advantage that Capacitors can deliver the current faster and thus support the amplifier performance.

How do capacitors influence the sound experience?

As the standard power grid 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 a clean audio playback without any loss of sound quality. Here it is important that the capacitor is located as close as possible to the Amplifier and the distance is less than 30 cm.

What do I need to look out for when using it?

Before connecting for the first time, the Capacitor pre-charged become. This includes, for example, our Masori charging resistor is used. If the capacitor is not pre-charged, the low-impedance Battery 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 currently includes Masori Capacitors from the following manufacturers: Audio System, ESX, Ground Zero, Hifonics, Masori, Massive Audio, Rockford Fosgate, SECHStinger.

Conclusion

Buffer capacitors are a practical addition, to avoid voltage fluctuations in the power grid. Our extensive selection includes numerous models with different output powers and storage capacities. Ultimately, the use of Capacitors positively on the sound quality.
