☈ 2600F Supercapacitor ☈

I have found that caps have different sounds. And the sound you get depends on several issues. Additionally, I have found that if you count the number of capacitors inline with the signal, you will find that the less capacitors have the more the influence they have with the sound. I have only two caps in the signal path (this is excluding those in the power supplies). One is in the output of the CD/DVD player while the other capacitor is on in the tube amps. If you change either of these capacitors it will give you a different effect on the final sound. If you have many capacitors, changing one may not have a profound change in the sound. However, I have modded many car stereos all of which use cheap electo types for signal passing and changing them all to film types will improve the sound greatly. I have experimented with scores of capacitors in my system and some capacitors will sound similar, but from top to bottom on the capacitor scale you will find that sound differences. The...

Unlike ordinary capacitors, batteries store energy in a chemical reaction. And because of this the ions are actually inserted into the atomic structure of an electrode. Unlike in an capacitor, the ions simply "cling". This is important because storing energy without chemical reactions allows super capacitors to charge up and discharge much, much faster than batteries. And because capacitors does not suffer the wear caused by chemical reactions, they also last a lot longer. Normally if we drain our car battery to much and try to start our car it will cause more damage to the car battery and eventualy it will not charge back up to it's maximum again. However this is not true for super capacitors. For example a capacitor the size of a D-cell battery, has a capacitance of about 20 microfarads. But if we take a similarly sized supercapacitor, it has a capacitance of 300 Farads. What this means is at the same voltage, the supercapacitor could in theory store up to 15 ...
