i have two 900 watt 2 channel and one 300 watt four channel. i only want the 900 watts to be connected to the cap. the cap is a 1.5 farad.

my friend told me sence i only want two amps to the cap that i should put the block before the cap and run one wire to the amp and the other wire to the cap and from the cap to both amps.

That will work just fine. Try to ground all of the amps in the same location if you can. Oh and you would not catch on fire, it would simply explode. no worries Just dont ground out the positive and negative lead of your capacitor and you should not have any troubles. I always mount the capacitor and ground it before charging it.

if i could make a suggestion buy a i believe 200amp fuse breaker for your car instead of a 4guage fuse block you will not have to buy fuses just in case you blow the fuse. the circuit breaker you just go and reset it and back in business i have one on my car and i spent maybe 25.00 with tax.
