    I do not personally have soundstream but my we installed 2 soundstream amps in my friends car over a year ago and there are no problems at all. Overall they are very solid amps, I am thinking of getting a complete soundstream system soon.

    The design looks good but not sure of how it performs. I prolly will also consider Kicker 650.4.

    Based on what i read the old school SS are built like a tank and really good for SQ.

    I'm not really impressed w/ the JL amp, imo. Too pricey but might get the same quality for less w/ other brands.

    If you are running mids and highs you want the highest dB possible, hell if you can run a 105dB amp (which as you've seen) the Soundstream Rubicon amps are, that would give sick clean power to your subs as well.
