IBleedMusick Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I have the 4.600 as well trying to get ahold of another and yeah $150 is about the price you will pay new. I managed to find one new for $120 on ebay but for a budget amp it looks stout. As for the new Crescendo amp if you're looking for quality sound and power at a good price you won't beat that with Crescendo. How are you liking that amp? I'm thinking for my purposes, it seems like a good option, especially at that price. I'm leaning heavily towards the new 6.5 component set Skar is coming out with, if and when I upgrade my speakers. Does it put out a true 100 RMS? Or is it overrated any? I'm just a little skeptical about this brand lol but its sooo tempting for the price! Definitely does rated at the very least, sounds great and a very solid performer. The better lines are the Reference, Tarantula, D Tower and X. Though out of my price range the Reference is my absolute favorite all around solid performer and Soundstream is under new ownership so they are revamping the line it isn't so cheap and flea market anymore. The D Tower and X are just out of price range and the Tarantula series is to "blingy" and cheap looking for my tastes. Since Soundstream is coming out with new picasso series amp, online car stereo has the old ones on clearance. You looking for something like this? http://www.onlinecar...eam_PX4760.aspx I would personally stay away from the Picasso series if you can, not the best of the Soundstream and it lacks quality. The few I have installed and seen used heat up too hot to touch. Never go into protect but shouldn't get that hot anyway, I also noticed it distorted quickly on the DD-1 (using the SQ track).

Still to get the Soundstream highend http://www.ebay.com/itm/SOUNDSTREAM-REF4-760-760-WATTS-4-CHANNEL-REFERENCE-, OS-/170574540433?pt=Car_Amplifiers&vxp=mtr&hash=item27b708ee91 beutiful in sound and power. In your pricerange class AB stable down till 1 ohm http://www.ebay.com/...=item4164d82cb9. If you are unsure about the true RMS output, have a look at the fusing of the amp. Think the yellow fuses are 20 amp fuses x 3 = 60 amp, so its fused for round 600 watt´s RMS. I looked over the Rub 4.600 My favorite of the Soundstream line if you really want quality then go for this one I would love to get one. I have an older Reference 405 that's being used in my Tahoe right now. As far as the Rubicons go they do what they say they do. I have the Rubicon 4.600 and 2 1.2500's no complaints over here. Thanks for the input man. I'm thinking the rubicon seems like a good option when it comes time. I just hope that the Skar component sets wouldn't miss out in that extra 30 watts RMS they are rated for if I go with those lol. I didn't realize Skar is doing components I need to look into those but I highly doubt there is that much of an audible difference in 30w.
