No type x's are 1000 wrms. Soundstream makes some pretty nice amps, is that a 1200 wrms amp that you have? Try checking your gain, it could be set too low.

well the type X is a sq sub although it should still hit
check:
sub wiring (wired down to 1 ohm)
wires should be 2 gauge
bassboost on amp set high enough
-check what isaac w. said also

Well SOUNDSTORM is a crappy brand of amps, so your right, your probably not getting what you want from your sub. What is your price range?

you can get something like a JBL GTO 1200.1 or a Kicker KX1200.1 depending on your price range
