Capacitors are used here in order to pass the audio signals without its DC level is interfering with the transistor''s bias. For instance, one transistor has a collector voltage of 5V, and you are directly connecting the 1v base biased transistor with it will always turn on the second transistor which means the DC level of the first transistor will interfere with the audio signal

Customer ServiceA capacitor helps supply power to the subwoofer''s amplifier during times of peak performance. The capacitor connects to the battery and stores power for the amplifier so that when high power consumption occurs (playing bass-heavy music loudly), the amplifier and subwoofer receive enough power.
Customer ServiceWithout the capacitor, a DC coupled input will pull the base down to ground, biassing the transistor off. In this case, the capacitor is being used as a coupling capacitor, that transmits AC signals, while allowing a DC voltage to exist across it without a DC current flowing.

Customer ServiceCapacitors offer some small amount of protection for amplifiers from potentially damaging under-voltage surges over time if you play loud music regularly. But most of the reason for adding capacitors is to keep your car voltage stable. Before considering capacitors, ensure you have adequate battery and alternator power for the total amperage of your audio system, and check
Customer ServiceThis is why you may need an audio capacitor to help supply power to your amplifier. Capacitors stabilize the amplifier, keeping the amplifier cooler, reducing distortion and enabling it to run more efficiently.

Customer ServiceThe capacitor is an open circuit for the DC voltage/current from the previous stage, but it allows the higher frequency AC signal to pass to the next stage. If you remove the entry capacitor to a new stage, the DC voltage from the previous stage will displace the operating point of the new stage, which will not operate properly. You will

Customer ServiceHaving reviewed the essential tools required, let''s focus on the specific materials you''ll need to properly fit a capacitor in your car audio system. Select a power capacitor with a voltage rating that matches or exceeds your system''s needs. Capacitors offer a buffer for your amplifier, ensuring steady power delivery. Measured in farads

Customer ServiceWhy are capacitors needed? The main function of capacitors is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field, and give this energy to the circuit, when necessary. Capacitors can handle power loss efficiently and make power production more economical. They are less sensitive to temperature. Capacitors discharge current almost instantaneously.
Customer ServiceIn this blog, we will review the bypass capacitor, its function, and how it is important in an amplifier circuit. What is a Bypass Capacitor? A bypass capacitor is added to an amplifier circuit in order to allow AC signals to bypass the emitter resistor. This effectively removes it from the output gain equation resulting in an increase to the amplifiers AC gain.
Customer ServiceA capacitor is particularly important in systems with large amplifiers or speakers. These can require a lot of power, and without a capacitor the voltage could drop which would cause distortion in the sound. By using a capacitor, you can ensure that your amplifier has all the power it needs to produce clear and powerful sound.
Customer ServiceThere was a recommendation to add more capacitance at the output of capacitance multiplier, and subsequent unanswered question as why is this recommended: I decided to check actual circuit behavior and give reasonably correct explanation.

Customer ServiceWhat is the purpose of a capacitor in an amplifier? Capacitors store electricity as instant power available for your amplifier. If the amplifier draws more current than is available from the electrical system directly, the capacitor covers the difference up to its stored capacity. The battery is not overloaded and the car voltage remains steady
Customer ServiceI understand the power supplies need power filter capacitors, and that output stages need DC decoupling capacitors. What I don''t understand is why so many are used. For the smaller, blue capacitors (there are 16) why not
Customer ServiceIn general, capacitors do wildly different things in audio amplifiers, from power supply energy storage to signal coupling and filtering. Unless you can provide a schematic of the device, we can only guess where it is connected and why. My guess is it is power supply bulk reservoir cap. They add cost and take up PCB space.

Customer ServiceWhat a capacitor does is charge and discharge millions of times a second. This allows a weak, unsteady current flow to become steady. The electricity inside the unit has spikes and dips, this would make audio distorted and harsh. Basically what I described helps the unit to keep a correct flow to the speakers.

On an input it prevents microphones and guitars (for example) ruining the bias levels of the amp - it won't work if you don't have the capacitor. On an output it pretty much does the same thing - any resistive load will upset the DC quiescent point and quite likely cause distortion or component failure.
This is why you may need an audio capacitor to help supply power to your amplifier. Capacitors stabilize the amplifier, keeping the amplifier cooler, reducing distortion and enabling it to run more efficiently. You should select a capacitor that can store enough power to feed your amplifiers.

In a audio amplifier, or anything else that doesn't need to work at DC, it is common to have capacitors between stages to block DC and allow each stage its own DC operating point. You have said that ..quiescient output should be around 6 V. How can I calculate this?
Capacitors charge and discharge very quickly and can provide power faster to the amplifier than the car battery and alternator. This is because the car battery’s internal resistance is a lot higher than the resistance found in a car audio capacitor. This resistance restricts the flow of current generated by the alternator and battery.
