Hey Rodney,
I checked the link but that's not going to help. My
system doesn't thump when I turn it on, it thumps when it's already on and
then the electric engine cooling fans kick on.

I don't think a cap will prohibit this "thump"
sound from happening. My understanding of a cap is that it "stores" power
so that when you hit a deep bass note, it'll hit with full force or
power. You're obviously getting enough power to make this "thump" sound so

This may sound silly...but they used to sell an
anti-thump filter. It was used when you turned on your stereo to keep the subs
from thumping.

Herb,
I would think your on the right track by putting a big 1 farad capacitor on
the power source to your amp. I am really suprised by the local stereo shop
being stumped. You might ask them to install one and give it a test that way
you can get out of paying for one of those if it doesnt do
I think you are correct. It just sends a big
bag of juice through the amps, and BOOM!

I didn't get any speaker wires but the power wires for the

When you did you wiring with M&H, did
you order the factory stereo and speaker harness or just skip that
