    There are very few of us audiophiles around here. As a matter of fact, lo-lyf and I are about the only ones. For the longest time we fought and bickered about everything possible until we came to the realization that we just have different tastes in the same hobby.

    Yep, and we probably still don't have the same political views but who cares and who does? You know your stuff, so do I. In fact, you probably know more than me in areas. I'm not here for a pissing contest though, just to help where I can.

    One day people will awake to the advantage and use of the cap in car audo. Most just don't truly understand its place and purpose of use.
