As for running a cap, I really don't need one. 1400 watts of power and I'm using 10 watts total...if that. That explains why I still have good ears!

Lots of reserve power...just in case I run into a person claiming SQ is for the "weenies". ("Fishman" does this alot...very annoying) Although it won't break over 120db, it's still plenty loud for me. I try to keep it around 70 to 80db.

Thats why I got 2 12's instead of 1...no SQ for weenies complsains any more. I hate blasting it but the occasional traffic-light db drag can be fun. Problem is that you can't hear a thing outside of my car unles windows are open...that sounddeadening makes me happy.

Caps
DJ - I've had lots of years of good luck with Stinger caps ( both of mine R Stinger 1 farad HRRC caps with the digital readout ). Brax probably had the first digital cap & I know their quality is top notch as well. RF's R good, too - figure that they're trying to corner the market with their purchase of Lightning Audio.
Justin - I paid about $150 per capacitor for mine & that's at dealer cost ( well, 2 years ago it was ). U can get the caps w/o readouts for about half that.
FWIW - IMO, in a power for dollar basis it's hard to beat the Alumipro C.A.P. It gives ya 15 farads for about $300 & more power won't hurtcha - especially with the L7's Justin's running!!:eek:
