I have two 15" Pyle 3600 watt Choppers in a ported enclosure, front/rear speakers are Infinity Kappas. I have just added a second 900 CCA Deep Cycle battery and I have one 3.5 Capacitor installed for a 4000 watt Class D Monoblock amp.
I am adding two more 15" subs and another identical amp and identical capacitor...my question....
should I connect each cap to each amp?
Should I wire them in Series/Parallel and connect both amps?
This yellow contraption is a dual 12 I built.
With no room inside my truck, I built an amp enclosure with push/pull 200mm case fans. The triple is finished...I'll post a pic later.

This is the link to the video I made of my truck audio. I just added a second 4000 watt Class D and a second 3.5 Farad Capacitor.
