Power capacitors are used to provide the power stages with enough energy for dynamic bass signals. All Mpower capacitors are high-quality German products. They are made with state-of-the-art technologies such as laser-welding and 12-point winding contacts for extremely low internal resistance and minimum inductance. These are the parameters that determine how quickly a capacitor can deliver its stored energy, and alongside capacitance they are the most important specifications. We stock capacitors with a capacitance of 1.0 and 1.5 farads (approx. 1 farad per 1,000 watts of music output). The power capacitors of the SC6 and SC6v series also have integrated circuitry that provides protection against reverse polarity. (Reverse polarity connection destroys capacitors and the hot electrolyte that leaks out can cause expensive damage or injury.) The circuitry also controls the charging process.
