Ok, I have a few questions regarding capacitors as well.

I've had one for over 5 years now, do these things go bad after a while?

Also, do I still need one with my KAC-8101D sub amp (Class D, 400 watts x 1 at 2 ohms)? Reason for this question is because I heard Class D does not draw as much current as older amps (it does have a 40 amp fuse however).

I had this with one of my older amps and I think it helped a little with dimming lights and slightly better bass. But, it seems today that most are saying caps are useless.
