Title: Soundstream 6.5" and 5.25" Tarantula Speakers
Review: There isn't much reason to go into a long review. In a word, they suck. I installed the Soundstream Tarantula 6.5" and 5.25" speakers in my 2002 4-Runner over the weekend. (I have an Alpine head unit & amp.) They sound worse than my factory paper cones. The highs are tinty and harsh and the lows are vague and muddy. Simply awful. I used Soundstream years ago in an old '92 4-Runner and they were wonderful. I'm guessing they weren't made in China back then. I noticed the "MADE IN CHINA" sticker on the box as I was installing them. I'm going to order some MB Quarts and throw the Soundstreams in the trash.
Is the review positive or negative?
