somebody told me to use one capacitor on each amplifiers instead of one big one for all the amplifiers. What is better? Does it make a difference?

If it can help you, I have 3x400 watts rms for my 3 subwoofers (3 amps).

Thanx

You won't see any difference either way, because if you use three they will all be in parallel and be effectively one 1.5 F. This only thing I can think of would be that it would be easier to get the three caps closer to each amp. I would say go with whatever is cheapest and/or easiest to install for you.
