all caps are basically the same.... So it really doesnt matter... For systems up to around 500 watts use .5 and for anything big use 1

All Caps are not the same. There's 20 and 24 volt surge caps.

Basically Best Cap for the money is Lighting audio Strike series.

when i get a cap for my System, im gonna go with the Lightning Audio Strike Monitor Top. it doesnt have the LCD readout (which i think is excessive) but it has the 10segment LED meter so at least you can tell how much power is being used if you want to. the .5 farad version of that cap is only $99 at crutchfield and the 1 farad one is only $130, too
