Gotta say, I'm shocked to see soundstream put out 2k watts and beat the 2 and 4 ohm ratings certified. Looks like going to a full bridge design was the right move, even if they did steal the design from soundigital. Nice video Big D! I wasn't expecting this and It was a fun video.

oi3 Vehicle not running will run @ 12v. Vehicle running will provide 14v. That’s why BOTH ratings are provided. Get the amp that makes the most power for a sub. 2 channel or 1 channel is fine as long as it has enough power. The 2 channel amps are bridgeable to one channel.

@popspowell4981 nope but from no fault of the amp. I lifted my back seat and it snapped the terminals in half because the cable was caught on a bolt. Ive already bought and installed a 2nd one and its going great. It snapped because the terminals are like 4 guage so you need a pair of offset metal adapters to run 0 guage.

I'll count this as a win. The marketing geniuses allowed an actual RMS rating on the spec sheet. Still they plastered 12k on the box and the model is a dubious 6k number. I think it's the right direction though, accurate manuals are where we look for real tech specs. It's almost like Big D himself had a hand in the specs on the back of the box. Great price on this amp, they should sell great with the new design and tested performance. I think they could have improved alot of things on this amp though, no subsonic filter? Or did I miss that. One set of speaker outputs, very budget. It looks like it could have been much slimmer with a different chassis. I'd love to see Soundstream get away from the spider logo, bring back Reference.

I would love to see you test the 4 channel version. It’s crazy how small these amplifiers are getting and still making big power. I’ve got an old school reference 405 sitting in my closet that I’ve been thinking about bringing out of retirement, but it’s literally 4xs the size of these amps. I’m sure the quality isn’t what it was back in the day, but it also wasn’t a cheap amp back then either.

Right, that’s the point a lot of people miss. Taking inflation into account, your Reference 405 would cost $1200 today new.

Alot of the older (ten years back) PPI and SS amps did or exceeded rated. Issue was when the people that cared left they just started rebadging junk. Nice to see these are actually decent. I wanna see a test of the Rubi Nanos and the new PPI Power Class. Though.

I recently installed one of the stealth models in my motorcycle. I made the mistake of assuming max power meant half or less in the real world. I blew a $200 set of polk audio speakers in a few days. I now have to take it easy on the new ones, and every time I smell anything close to a hot coil, I shut it down fast. If interested, I have a 2nd one I am not using. I could send it to you for a test video.

I gotta be honest, who cares about the efficiency after it made actual power ratings. When was the last time Soundstream did that? I am in shock and actually excited. Maybe they have been watching BDW on KZbin and actually listened. Very cool, very impressed, and actually excited for the industry again. As you say it is a copy but honestly, the entire guitar amp industry is based on 3 basic amp designs, just tweaked and modified for certain attributes so that doesn't bother me. Awesome channel and I love it!

@@VentureWelding a lot of subwoofer amps these days are full bridge. Also you can use crossover in most head unit's for low pass (sub) instead of the amp (80Hz is typical). It's often to tell what frequency the crossover is set on the amp due to the large range it covers.

I can't say much of anything because I've always been a big fan of Soundstream. I have a Soundstream Rubicon Nano RN1.5000D and while I already know that it doesn't push anywhere near 5000 watts, I've always been interested to see what it actually does put out because it SLAMMED my two Sundown SA12-D2s. However, I learned from your videos and bought an Orion HCCA 3k watt cheater amp. I am no professional, but I was smart enough to install a 360A high output alternator that cost me $700 and I also did the Big 3 upgrade, and I ran all 0/1 G wiring. I do have a 3 farad cap, but I haven't researched enough how to use it properly, and I'm only using one of the power and ground inputs, with hardly half gain for four Sundown SA12-D2s, so it SLAMS and it doesn't draw too much power.
