Farad rating is essentially how much energy it can hold. With your amp up to 15 feet away from it's power source, it takes a while for the power from the batteries to get to your amp. With a Cap close to your amp, it smooths out the power draw spikes. The alternator can't react quick enough to increase, then decrease it's output to satisfy the draw generated by the amp.
If you understand hydraulics, think of it as an accumulator.
