Thank you for the correction. Spelling has never been my strong point. I can't define a typical capacitor. Every amp will very in sizes. One amp can have several caps ranging from capacitors sized in microfarads (uF), nanofarads (nF), and picofarads (pF) smallest. The smaller picofarads and nanofarads are typically connected from the power supply to ground as a "bypass cap" used in filtering out AC noise. Our OEM amps are quite small and are a bad representation of aftermarkets.

What's the capacitance of a typical capacitor in an Amp?
Do you mean damping?
