in no way would installing a capacitor help you retain cleaner bass. in the words of the great binkinpunk, "it acts like a bandaid." if you have the cash to do a big 3, there would be no need for a cap. if you have a system that draws id say, less than about 500w, you wouldnt need a cap. it is a cheap alternative if you dont plan on upgrading your alternator
