Impedance load too low, system voltage too low, or defective amp.

C'mon, DYohn... a defective Soundstorm amplifier? Surely you jest.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

defective? NAH, soundstream never. what kind of subwoofers are you running and how many ohms/rms and what ohm are your subwoofers each?

Your amplifier has shorted output transistors you say you took it apart and didin't see anything. You will not be able to see this problem without an ohm meter of some sort. Do you have one?
