are you talking about a 'cap' for a speaker? I've never heard is called a stiffening capacitor? - maybe wrong thing all together.
If it is simply a cap for a speaker just wire it up in series with your positive leading to the speaker. Splice, insert, tap it up.

It's actually a more of a filter cap... It will reduce noise... And you do not hook them up in "series" you hook them up in "parallel" to your circuit...

You generally only use one cap per speaker so how do you figure that you wire this up in parellel????

yoo, I installed the capacitor today, damn, took like 2 hours for me cuz I never did it before.
But it works perfectly fine now so I'm pretty happy about saving the money from getting it installed elsewhere.
This one place told me they were charging 40 bucks plus extra for the cables.
