DESIGN FEATURES
∙Uncompromising Design and Construction including
∙High Power/High Current Capability (subwoofer channel only) - Soundstream’s exclusive circuitry permits customization of your amplifier to its particular application— High Current, for
∙ChassisinkTM Darlington Power Array - Soundstream’s “overbuilding” of the output section incorporates multiple output transistors instead of a few for faster, stronger power delivery.
The transistors are directly sandwiched between the circuit board and the heatsink in a design called ChassisinkTM to ensure cool, efficient amplifier operation.
∙Staggered Asymmetrical Electronic Crossover - Continuously variable 2 or
∙Rear Channel
∙PowerGrid Power Supply Design - All power supply components are located near one another, for the shortest possible current path and are connected by thick, wide PCB traces, which ensures rapid, high current delivery. The entire power supply is isolated on one side of the circuit board while the audio stage is located opposite it, guaranteeing minimal noise.

∙Smart Thermal Rollback - Most amplifiers shut off when they get too hot. In the unlikely event the Reference705s reaches 85° C, it will gradually roll back its average power (without affecting the dynamics). Once the amplifier has cooled off, it returns to full power output. If overheating should continue, a second thermal sensing protection circuit will shut off the amplifier if the heatsink reaches 95° C.
∙Unregulated Power Supply - 4 ohm power ratings are measured at 12 volts, which means substantially greater output in the real world when the vehicle is running, where voltages range from 13.6 to 14.4 volts. Dynamic capability of the unregulated power supply is vastly greater than that of a tightly regulated power supply.
∙Fault Monitor LED on the front panel notifies you of a blown power supply fuse.
∙1/2 Ohm Subwoofer Drive Ability - The Reference705s' subwoofer channel is designed to
