    Every time you say it’s inexpensive. But the other side, you list down things to improve. Do you think that manufactures don’t know how to improve their product ?? Offcourse you will get what you pay for. You stoopid beach, go and manufacture for all the expectations you had and sell at very cheap price and come here to review the products. Your kind of As holes just find fault only.

This is an amazing unit for the size and price! This is $100 we spent 6-700$ for this 20 yrs ago! It don’t meet specs but for the size and price this is amazing! Unheard of 20yrs ago! It simply didn’t exist! This is a testament to the massive gains we’ve made in technology in the last 10yrs! If you leave your expectations behind for just a minute you will auw! In the significant gains we’ve made in the last 10 yrs and enjoy this product for what it is, a testament of what we can achieve as a community in the years to come! What an amazing product! For the price the size and the power that we strived for 10-20 yrs ago! Amazing! 100% amazing! Now we need the marketing to follow suit and be honest with us about the products capabilities!

    Agreed! In the mid 90's, I had a soundstream reference 500 amp on 2 soundstream spl 12's (dual 4 ohm) wired to 1 ohm. That shit slammed! Also, Of all the set ups I've had over the years, this was one of the best sound quality I've ever had. So sad what's happened to soundstream. The davinci, the tarantula... ground breaking amps. They had a good thing going, and flushed it all.

Although they do create boss quality type of gear they also have some real GEMS that obviously need to be researched to make sure that it is in fact one of the GEMS that you are receiving.

    I use the 4-channel version of this amp in my winter car, reason is the 30a fuse that allow powering it via a fuse dashcam adapter and not run a dedicated power wire (I know it's now ideal). It performs well driving stock speakers and clearly provide a clean boost of power compared to HU output. No distortion at all even at high volume. Maybe it does not reach rated power, but it sound really good and is one of the very few amp that can be easily installed under the dash or behind the HU.

    There was a time when you could trust Soundstream specs and expect more. Since purchased by Epsilon, nothing of this brand has been up to par. You couldn't trust a Soundstream amplifier to do rated power if struck by lightning. And they still don't disappoint. The only way Soundstream and PPI will ever be great again is if the two brands get bought out by another company and saved. If they made these to do at least rated, it might be worth something. I wouldn't mind a 250 watt palm sized amp for $100, there's a market for that.

    I hooked one of these up to a 150W RMS Kicker 6.5 sub/passive radiator box and powered it with a 240W solar power station. This single shot amp works perfectly with the 12V output and a $7 fused cigarette plug to hook up power, remote, and ground. One JBL Xtreme and a couple of patch cables later, I have a portable music player that can hit 30 Hz. The solar panels charge the power station faster than the amp can discharge it. The most I would do with this is hook it up to a factory radio that didn't already have a sub, but it's definitely NOT a Reference 500!

    Thanks for suggesting that. I made this exact same suggestion months ago to Big D. Ya, I'd like him to do some tests, even if testing is not posted in a video, just to see what power output differences there are with various types of amps and the power supplies they have. It's really the power supply design that sets the stage for the output power IMO. I would guess that most low end car amps have no regulation, there for, max power is proportional to input voltage. A good amp will have regulation to compensate for dips in input voltage. In other words, try to keep the supply rails fairly constant from say, 11 volts to 15 volts.
