SPLWGN Posted September 15, 2011 Author Report Posted September 15, 2011 Meant TX1.2000 not 2500 btw :/ http://www.soundstream.com/AudioProducts/Amplifiers/tarantula.htm Only reason I'm thinking about that one is because there is one sitting at the place I work and it's cheap, otherwise I'd probably go a different brand Quote

corrie32 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 I hooked up two Tarantula 2600d's to four T-5 15's, in my brothers' ford bronco. The amps are strong, clean and easy on the electrical. The 2600d is 1/2 ohm stable and the 2000d is 1 ohm stable.

Purplehaze Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 I also have a little experience w/ Soundstream. I ran the Picasso amp for a little while, and I can tell you 100% that IT WAS A POWER HOG!!! I tried using it recently as an add-on, you know, throw a sub and box in the back seat and get a lil more bass. Well, the Soundstream sucked all the power! It GREATLY reduced the output of my other amps. So I changed it to a smaller amp, different brand, and it made a world of difference! So all in all, the Soundstream amps, IMO, are too power hungry, and not efficient enough to make them worth using. That being said, I have seen some HELLACIOUS systems built w/ Soundstream! It really depends on a lot of things I guess! Quote Kickin' Cruiser Seller Feedback Stage 3 Dash, Door Panels,4th Order wall 4 - 15'son a DC 5.0K 2 DC 5.0K'sSolo X 15 (v.2) Sub Build
