Abstract

A power source of an audio apparatus loaded on a car is a battery with a rated voltage of 12V or more. An electrolytic capacitor unit is utilized as a power source filter in the audio apparatus. As the electrolytic capacitor unit, a given number of aluminum electrolytic capacitors with the same rating is connected in parallel to gain a capacitance of 1 F (farad) or more and an internal resistance of less than 1.0 m&OHgr; as a whole. Thus, the electrolytic capacitor unit can provide, in addition to a large capacitance necessary for a power source filter for an audio apparatus, sufficiently low internal resistance and stable output voltage.
