Sorry to thread-jack, but when he referred to capacitors, I thought about a question I've had for a while.
I understand basic circuitry, and RLC circuits, but how do audio capacitors work w/audio equipment in our vehicles? I'm really confused as to whether the cap is stored charge of the DC or AC currents from the power supply. Which one is it? All I can think is w/AC it will give a lower resistance and initial current draw to all power accessories, so AC wouldn't be probable? So does it act on DC supply? Sorry for the stupid questions, but I'm completely naive about the physics of electricity in audio equipment. Also, these things must be very dangerous to install, correct? I mean a 1 Farad cap would instant kill a person. IIRC, humans can only take up to 1uF. I'm sure there's more resistance, but these things must be very dangerous to work with, correct? If you guys know any good sources to read up on, that'd be appreciated, too.
In regards to the guy's car. IMO, it looks gaudy. As I said earlier, it must be difficult to drive that thing let alone in the night. However, if he likes it, then that's all that matters. Though, like must have opinionated on here, it's not in my tastes.
