So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

How To Install A Car Stereo Capacitor

By Fred Russo

If you are friendly with gadgets and are really interested in altering and improving your car audio system, then you should start with something as easy as installing your car audio capacitor. This is actually quite easy to do and does not require too many equipments and additional gadgets. Follow this quick guide to help you smoothly carry out the installation.

For installing the capacitor in your car audio system you would of course need a capacitor that is going to be compatible with the audio system of your car. So you will have to carry out the necessary research to select the capacitor that will suit your car best and then you can carry on with the actual procedure of installation. You would also be needing good quality wire cutters along with a head screw driver and those should be enough requirements to help you install the capacitor for your car audio system.

The most common circumstance in this kind of a situation where you are planning to install a capacitor for the audio system is after you already have a running car audio system with full gear including the amplifiers for the speakers as well. In such cases, which is the usual case, you would first have to start off by disconnecting the battery cables and the battery, so that there is no electrical connection between them. After you have disconnected the battery and the cables, you have to position and fix the audio capacitor close to the amplifiers. The distance between the amplifier and the capacitor is nothing fixed, it doesn't have to be too close either. As long as you are able to fix the amplifier to the capacitor it should be enough distance between the two. Also, the space in your car makes a difference.

Next, you would have to cut off the ground and the power supply that was reaching the amplifier and connect those to the capacitor instead. This should be done using some appropriate wiring. If you still have wiring left after having connected the ground and the power to the capacitor, cut out two small pieces of the wiring and connect the wire from the capacitor to the amplifier for the power supply. This needs to be done as a compulsion, so even if you do not have the old wire left over just use some fresh wire for this leg of the installation. This means that you can do this procedure only after you have connected the ground and the power to the capacitor, which means that the power should be on the input side of the capacitor. From the output side of the capacitor, the cables should be connected to the amplifier and this should be done in the pace where the cables had originally been cut off from the amplifier. This is actually the last leg of the installation procedure.

After this is taken care of, you can very simply connect the power back to the battery terminal and the capacitor would be ready for function.
