    Soundstream introduced a new line of amplifiers for 2019 called the "Bass Extreme" series. There are four monoblocks and one four channel in the lineup. They all include a built-in bass processor and seemingly lots of power for the money. The one we are testing today is the top of the line model, the BXA1-10000D, claimed as 10,000 watts MAX. We all know there's no way you are getting 10kW for $200. The Soundstream website provides "RMS" numbers of 1400, 2100 and 3300 watts at 4, 2 and 1 ohm respectively.
    Let's take a closer look at this "10kW" amp and see how it performs. Make sure you keep watching all the way until the end of the video as I also test a Bass Rockers BR2000.1D amp

I think someone won IASCA championship with same amp. Back in the days I drive 12" sub and Component Set with it. If they had rated amp on this video 2000w rms everybody would be Happy to get little extra and lots of dynamic power. Soon everyone would want to buy these...

I wonder what they higher end amps can do like the x3.71 and there 14.71 or 14k not sure if i got that right but the 3.71 share a lot similarities with the powerbass xta 5k amp.

The VCR cost $1400 when it first came out and by the early 90s you could buy a VCR of better quality than the $1400 ones that first came out for $200 or less ...

    It looks like the engineers over there at Soundstream set out to design a decent amp but the marketing department stepped in and made them look like big dummies. It looks like a quality amp. You don't see 105 degree caps in very many amps on the market these days when 85 degree caps are so much cheaper.
    The board layout looks to be their own design. Does anyone know if this board design is being used by any other companies?
    If they where straight with the numbers they might actually be able to regain their reputation. Soundstream did make quality products once upon a time. I've always been an Orion guy myself and I ran Hollywood Sound Labs too back in the day but I put Soundstream amps in friends vehicles in the 90's and they where good back then.

    Sad to see the soundstream name come to this. Had soundstream back in the day and it was an awesome amp. Bought a 600 watt mono amp about 5 years ago and it is still hitting hard to this day. It’s a full on fleamarket brand now.

Did you know soundstream has a dealer only line of amps n subs you won't find on eBay or Amazon also it's my understanding you can't simply buy it and install yourself. I think the only way you or I can rock it is to have it installed by a certified installer

    Bass rockers ... Is basically what I have with the ard1.8000d ... Same guts same internal wiring and all same power too only difference is I only have one single subs output .. 4 gauge ... But I would love to have dual 8 gauge outputs ... Another thing was I hade to shave down my stinger 4 gauge to 0 gauge reducer in order to fit .. I hated that too .. otherwise this amp has been great to me never overheats .. very efficient ..

    Hey Big D! I’m sure you are aware that these inflated ratings are an issue throughout a portion of the auto and home audio community. The good folks over at Audioholics have started a petition for truth in power claims. I realize that home audio is a somewhat different arena, but as you are committed to the same idea I thought you would be interested in signing with us. Perhaps you could sponsor a similar action for mobile electronics! Thanks for your time.

    Not sure what it is going to take for people (the consumers) to realize that if an audio company has a "parent company" it is most likely that their products aren't worth anything. "Parent companies" (corporations) bought up the decent audio companies to bring down the standards to entry level - WITHOUT keeping the quality of the original company.
    Example: HiFonics was good until it was bought by Maxxsonics... now it is mostly crap. Orion is now made by "MD Engineering", but has kept - and possibly increased - the quality...

    The only way that amp will do rated power is you change the fuses out to 300 amps each and feed it 600 amps. You will get rated power along with a good smoke show.
    Overall it's a good budget amp

    Hmm, wonder if Soundstream is going to let everyone review and dyno this amp, then later switch out to a cheaper board without telling anyone like they did with the TN4.900D and TN1.1200D? Those originally were decent amps and I thought Soundstream was turning itself around. Then they relied on that "specifications may be subject to degrade" err I mean "change" loophole. Well, their specs may be subject to change, but our opinions aren't. For that, I call them SHADYSTREAM. Seriously, the people that bought those newer amps based on all the good reviews of the older boards really got duped. SHAMESTREAM! as well as SH!TTYSTREAM! are all well deserved names too.

    I love that brushed aluminum finish. Yeah labeling polarity under the terminals makes life a real pain. My buddy smoked a lot of fuses on an Audiobahn amp because he couldn't see the symbols. The amp was mounted in the back of a Jeep with low visibility, luckily with new fuses and further inspection, the amp survived and bumped hard.

  • @Hayawasa
    @Hayawasa 5 років тому +1

    Could it be safe to say on average that the cheap amps you should just add another 0 to the fuse rating and expect less than that on certified wattage? I've seen that a lot on your dyno vids. Seems like the amperage draw stays fairly efficient on some of these cheapo amps except when they are doing dynamic.

    Today's Soundstream is junk compared to back in the day. Before Sound Around, Ipsilon, DEI and other marketing companies bought many of the quality brands, you would pay about a $1.00 or more per RMS watt. Move to the high current amps and the price doubled easily.

Soundstresm warranty states yoi must get it installed professionally. The tech said my degree in electronic engineering and 30 years of car audio as my hobby wasn't enough. The aren't the soundsfream of back in the day when I could bring my D200 to Refondo Beach after I melted the fuse holder off of them cuz of the speakers I was running and they would fix them on an hoir.

  • @pgmurray76

    Nothing is supporting the main PCBA of either amplifier. Where are the screws? Is double sided tape and the output devices supporting the whole PCB? Probably not even. Looks like the PCB slides into slots in the heatsink/chassis and that is it. Maybe a couple pieces of foam rubber on the backside to slow down board flex. Cheap. Just cheap. Don't care if the PCB is narrow.

  • @immaballin247

    This amp is such a pile of junk. Soundsteam will not willingly support it. Had to threaten them to fix it the first time. It lasted for 1 hour the first time. Second time 10 minutes.First time was ruming it at 3 ohm 1 jl 13w7. Second time 1.5 ohm 2 13w7s. It sounded good but but it is pooly made. The soundstream support and Customer service peple are rude and basically told me listening to customers issues is a waste of time. I will never buy a product from this company again. The soundstream that was located in redondo beach and made awesome bullet proof amps is gone.

    The Epsilon owned Soundstream has had a few amps recently do rated power. Their Rubicon or Rubicon Nano was tested here on UA-cam to do rated. When they brought back the Reference series for 1 year those did rated....but most of their other amps are like this...overrated. Just another case of if you know what you're buying, it isn't a horrible deal...just dishonest in their rating. 2k watts for $200 isn't a horrible price.

    Honestly this amp is a great deal, 2000 watts for just 200$ is perfect. I just wish they would rate it more honestly instead of inflating numbers... These would sell perfectly at their rated power for the money. But, people are stupid too. They should do more research if they really want 10000 watts. They would quickly find out this is a joke. So, uneducated customers will just buy another inflated brand. This is just a way for soundstream to keep their heads above the water...
