Review on Soundstream T5 2500DL Tarantula 5 Channel Amplifier by Ben Liu

I am an ASE certified installer/mechanic and have been installing/building audio equipment for many years. Please understand that I have a really high standard of "good" when it comes to sound. I installed it in my mother's 08 TL along with her new Hertz components and a new 4 channel inline audio stream driver. *I'm adding this after I left my review* I've noticed that some people are leaving negative comments about the output of the amp, please ignore these reviews completely and understand that they probably aren't using a linear driver like I am did amplify the right signal. I use high quality component speakers and I know this amp has no hesitation in blowing them up. Especially in newer cars, the line output converter simply doesn't deliver enough signal. When a signal is applied from the inputs of the factory amplifier, in most cases they are very weak. Check the voltage on the RCA, if that's not what the amp needs, use a line driver to give the amp the signal it needs and it will give you the sound you want. Let me follow up by telling you that this amp gave her back a bit of youth lol! First I tried setting up with a Kenwood amp, everything was fine, but it didn't work. Now she's kicking ACDC so hard she's shaking the mirrors more than a teen listening to rap! This amp gets loud while keeping the quality. It pushes the woofer components into the doors so well you can feel the air in your jeans. I told her to turn it down so she could read the street signs! Needless to say I liked the product, customer service and fast shipping. The only improvement I think is necessary is better packaging. I posted some half finished photos so don't be too strict with the looks :)
