It's the same thing with a lot of companies. Everyone's selling out to the big corporations to make a quick profit.

keep in mind that just because companies are owned by a parent company does not always make them =.

I remember when soundstream was the shit. I used to have one of their chrome soundstream sleeping beauty amplifiers. It was on 2 of the old jl audio 12 w6's and boy did it ever slam.

I remember when I was in school the Soundstream amps were awesome, can't remember what models I just remember seeing blue amps in several cars around town. Back when 200 watts for subs was a lot.

Not accurate. The company Fahrenheit (dont think they spell it like that tho) Makes SS DVD head units. Said company was bought in 2002 by Epsilon Electronics. Soundstream was acquired in 2001 Fahrenheit, PA, Kole, and Spl all use the same units and carry a 1 year warranty. The ones that have the Soundstream logo come with a 2 year warranty. Most of the time the price difference is around $30.00 I think its worth it to get the ones that say Soundstream for the extra 365 days of Warranty. If you are buying unauthorized go Fahrenheit as they are usually the cheapest. But 100% the same thing.

So just to clarify ---

Soundstream, Power Acoustik, Kole, SPL, and as of Nov. 18 Precison Power ---> Epsilon electronics

Boss Audio, Planet Audio, SoundStorm ---> AVA Enterprises
