car audio question have a 8000 watt amp running 2 3000 watt subs ...cap?

Hi, i have a car audio setup as follows:

power cable has a ANL 100 amp fuse running to a
10farad batcap capacitator (inphase)
this powers :

1 juice audio 2400 watt amplifier for 4 6.5" component speakers
and
1 inphase 8000 watt mono amp running 2 12" 3000 watt subs (1000w rms each)

what i want to know is, i will start using the head unit to power the speakers so i'm getting rid of the juice audio 2400 watt ampifier

would i get away with removing the power cap and just powering the 8000 watt amplifier through the car battery?

i have a vauxhall astra 1998 mk 4 if that helps?

any help apreciated

thanks!!

You don't need the capacitor, but the capacitor will help all your lights from dimming in your car, also the capacitor helps give the amp a more constant power, which makes the subs better sounding. The capacitor will also help to protect your alternator and battery, because the stereo system will draw from the battery and the alternator will have to work harder to keep charging the battery. If you take off the capacitor, you may also have to replace your car battery, from the stereo system draining the battery and the alternator recharging it soo many times. I would recommend keeping the capacitor or getting a car audio battery and hooking that up. In the end, if you keep the capacitor you might end up saving money by not having to replace your battery or alternator.

For decades now, car people have always pushed their car stereos to the limit in order to produce the best sound possible. Our grandparentsÂ’ cars with their bulky and static-filled AM radios gave way to the FM broadcasts and cassette tape playing stereoÂ’s of our parents. Now, car manufacturers are going digital with the use of not only CD players but satellite radio with MP3 playing compatibility.

The latest and hottest growing trend in car audio now is the idea of surround sound speaker systems. The thought behind it is to have all the speakers in your car set up exactly like that surround sound audio system you have in your living room. There is a reason why everyone wants one in their car. It simply sounds incredible. Here is how you can go about bringing that movie theater sound experience into your daily ride to work.

• One of the first goals to check off your list is find a stereo head unit which allows you to wire in a surround-sound processor. Since the processor will be digital, your head unit needs to supply a digital signal. You will also need fiber-optic cables. They are used to transmit digital signals between the components. If you previously purchased a nice head unit but it cannot supply digital signals, get a CD changer with fiber-optic connection. Connect the processor to the CD changer but remember that unit you will not get a surround-sound effect, if you play a CD. You can always select a surround-sound processor that converts RCA signals to digital.
• Make sure your car is equipped with a high-end CD changer and/or DVD unit that plays the software that carries the surround-sound signals.
• You should install a five-channel amplifier that can provide power for the front speakers, the rear speakers, and the subwoofers. Each corner of the car plus the subwoofers will be separate channels.
• The center channel should have a 4- to 6-inch midrange speaker and a tweeter. This type of combination should be in its own enclosure and placed in the center portion of the carÂ’s dashboard.
• You now need to install an amplifier to run the center-channel speakers. You can get away with a two-channel amplifier played bridged mono but have it contain an electronic crossover which can be outboard, or built in to the amplifiers.
• You are now set to begin installing the speakers which will be in all four corners of the car. Some of the newer cars already have speaker locations work perfectly surround-sound setting. Older cars are a different story and will require a touch of imagination and some work. YouÂ’ll need to add a tweeter high on the pillar at shoulder height, while a midrange speaker is used in the factory-made opening in the door.
• Now that all of your speakers are in place, set the electronic crossover for the center channel. Don't play it at full range but opt instead for about 80 Hz and up for optimal sound quality.
• Once everything has been installed, adjust the system to find the perfect fit of sound quality and volume for you. Play around with the amplifier gains and then the surround sound processor for any type of tweaks you may need.
