I'm new in this electonic and new member too.
16y, student I have two 150wRMS and two 60wRMS sub-woofer. I found out my amp is not powerful enought to make my 4 sub push to the limit. I bought four 70V 10000mf capacitors and install them in, the subs really work better but also not powerful enought. My question is: 1) How big is the capacitor need to be install to push the limit? 2) Do I need a bigger transformer? Or just add more capacitors. 3) I need lower bass, what do I need to upgrade? |

Adding capacitors won't give you more output power.To achieve it you need more bias ,i.e. idle current and higher voltages for the supply rails.
You also need more heatsinking I guess

Bigger transformer, more output devices, more heatsinks..
