Setting up two amplifiers and a capacitor to power a DC bus bar distribution center. As opposed to wiring everything to the capacitor, this is a much safer and cleaner option. In addition, you will be able to expand your car audio system in the future.

As a result, your accessories, in our case stereo amplifiers, will have the power they need to run effectively. Underpowering your accessories can shorten their life and who wants that. Read On Our Blog: https://www.chrisdoeswhat.com/setting-up-multiple-amplifiers-and-capacitor-to-dc-bus-bars/ We wired our monoblock amplifier for our subwoofers with the same gauge as our battery supply cable. The additional power that the amp required was compensated for by wiring a capacitor to the bus bar. Additionally, capacitors extend the life of the battery since they minimize power spikes. Once the bus bar has been installed, do a final check to make sure everything is tight. In order not to blow a fuse, we disconnected the capacitor positive cable from the bus bar. We then connected the battery that was powering everything but the capacitor and made sure that everything worked. Once we are sure there are no issues, we can now charge and connect our capacitor to the bus bar. To do this we used jumper cables connecting the positive cable to the battery. Using the other side of the positive jumper cable, we connected it to the positive wire on the capacitor. Sparks fly and the capacitor is charged. It can now be connected to the bus bar. Using this method is much faster than using a resistor, and you will not blow the inline fuse at the battery. 00:00 Setting Up Multiple Amplifiers And Capacitor To DC Bus Bars 01:26 Disconnect Car Battery And Discharge Capacitor 02:02 Making Ground Cable For Bus Bar 05:56 Connecting Capacitor to Bus Bar 07:36 Wiring Up Amplifiers 09:30 Running Positive Cable From Battery To Bus Bar In Jeep 10:30 Separate Audio Cables From Power Cables 11:51 How To Charge Audio Capacitor Easy 12:57 Our Thoughts Of the Install And Banter 17:36 Bloopers And Outtakes Tools We Love: Milwaukee 18-Volt Drill and Impact Driver Kit: https://amzn.to/366BwxM Husky Mechanics Tool Set: https://amzn.to/3kuGUzD Angle Grinder https://amzn.to/36FaC09 Forney Easy Weld Welder https://amzn.to/3romDR1 Welding Helmet https://amzn.to/3wOq58z You can also follow us on our blog: https://www.chrisdoeswhat.com/subscribe/ Or go directly to cooking: https://www.dininginwithdanielle.com Support us by shopping through our Affiliate Links!
