The SPL 12's were my first set I owned back in 1996, I had them in my Monte Carlo LS pair up with a reference 700s man they slammed especially in such a big trunk. The Golden Era of car audio.

@djsho2k2 3 месяца назад

Had the same set up in a neon. Loud AF. Then I switched the 700 for a Class A 5.0. Was just a touch louder and even cleaner bass. Had the original Picasso on two sets of SPL60s. I miss the 90s.

I would say that the golden era of car audio is now. So easy to make noise now for cheap it doesn't make sense. This old head went broke installing Pyramid incorrectly using Radio Shack/Home Depot wire on JC Whitney drivers that I got tired of chasing a dream that failed decades ago. KISS

@bozanimal5576 3 месяца назад

You know what I get out of this channel? Nostalgia. A reminder not only of simpler times but to see how many other people shared a passion for car audio in the 90's, and a validation - or disqualification - of certain products being high or low quality. I can't do much with the information itself, but it's good to reminisce, and that'll do. That'll do, Big D. That'll do.🔈🔉🔊

Learnin me up on this brands history really threw me back by what I discovered! Soundstream is the FIRST US based brand to develop professional digital recording gear as well as being responsible for the first digital recordings, pre-dating the advent of the CD! Top it all off, Soundstream amps from early on were designed by the GREAT Nelson Pass! His current Pass Labs/First Watt home HiFi amps cost top dollar, yet he also posts his circuit designs for free, sells DIY amp kits, and will assist you personally in building them via his message board. The man is a superhero of audio!

@wal2 3 месяца назад

I was just out of college when I brought my 95 Z24. I had Rockford in prior cars. I installed an Alpine cd deck, and Soundstream 405 5 ch Amp and Oz Audio components. My subs were 2 15" SPLs in 3.2 cu ft sealed enclosure I made. Best subs I owned. I couldn't believe how good they sounded in a small enclosure.

@volvo09 3 месяца назад

I had quite a few Volvo 240's in the past. My first "system" I threw some 10's in my hi fi speakers and tossed those in the back of an 85 240 with a 5 speed. The large cabinets made it bang pretty good, everyone always loved it. It was no proper bandpass box or anything, but it worked good, especially for the lower power amp I was running at the time.

@jakebeetham1 3 месяца назад

Amazing subwoofer, incredible that both are still in mint condition! Well preserved! The 90s were a great time for audio equipment. Sound quality was amazing but so was power overall for the time with some Class AB amps maxing out at 400-800+ watts. These days the sound quality of most amplifiers home or car isnt nearly as good as the 80s and 90s Class AB amps. They do still make Class AB amps based on those vintage amps but the original amps from back in the day are better for sure in sound quality. They sure dont make audio equipment like they used to...

Literally the most generous donation EVER! Man I drooled over these in the magazines and catalogs back in the 90s. Thanks so much! Can’t wait to see how it performs 👌

I had that amp running just my front stage midbass was mono but it sounded great. Sub channel more then 100 watts people thought the 8s in my doors were in a box in the back it was that loud . I always wanted the chrome amps i believe they are supposed to be class A

I wish someday you get to amp dyno, a Craig Power Play 260. Amp model number V541 which was my first amp back in 1987.

Yeah hook them both up. Please and nest time use the reference 5.0 soundstream which is a 500 watt amp, I think you have one of those.

Fun fact. The huge Toys R Us store in times square had a few of these hanging from the ceiling as a part of their audio system throughout the store. I don’t remember if they were 10s or 12s.

It looked like it had a raised spider landing to run a larger diameter spider?

Wow those need a nice dense enclosure and put in a car to hear, i bet that would sound so good on music. Not beats, but real music. Wouldn,'t want to bottom those old fogey's out

We don't see amps that have all the connections on just one side much these days. Now what would be the next sub coming in, one of those BASS subs from Alpine?

I have a set of NIB 10" Jackhammers. You ever tested them before?

I think this was the best period of amps and subs from Soundstream. Those Reference series amps were amazing. I wanted a Continuum so bad back then! But never had the money for one.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who was absolutely drooling over this hear back in the day
