Badass.. But worth the coin?

So I am searching around on the internet, bouncing from here and there, and I end up at an ebay listing. I have heard of soundstream, and I have seen these amps before, but are they are really what some crack them up to be? It's definitely sexy....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

hahaha... those amps are fairly old arent they? the tarantula i remember is the same one in your post, so maybe its an "old school" amp //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

The trantula was one of SS signiture class amps like the vangough.They make good power and are still a good amp.If the price is right I say snag it up!
