they got very good reviews on ocs.com. the cr4000.1 and the 1F serise amps all got very good reviews.

i am tempted in buying 2 of the 1Fd2500's or 1 of the CR5000.1's based on the reviews.

Soundstorm is way overratted power wise and they overheat. I used to one the first year models they made and both replacements did the same thing.

I used to always say "you picked the wrong word after Sound..." but now that's not true anymore. But the huge difference is that Soundstream once made straight up awesome gear, where Soundstorm never did.

can't beat that price. the alphas are sick. they get loud. i used to have a 15 inch alpha and for one sub, it got insanely loud. so i could only imagine what a pair of 12s would do.
