Open to reasonable offers. I paid $390 shipped just before Christmas, but want to get rid of this ASAP so I can put the cash towards my Alpine double-din/blackbird setup, so I am asking: For this reason, I highly recommend professional installation. I know this is not DOA, but no warranty is expressed or implied as I cannot be sure that it is hooked up correctly at your end. I just took a short video with my digital camera to prove this was working as of a couple nights ago. The operations manual can be downloaded from Soundstream's website at: This amp did it all without a hiccup and sounded incredible. The front stage was getting 100W/channel, the rears were getting 50W/channel and the subs were 300W bridged mono at 2 ohms. I had this running Image Dynamics CX62 components (2ohm) up front and the OEM rears, as well as 2 OZ Audio 250L 10" subs in the rear. This is a class A amp that was over $1000 new. It is also missing the rubber grommets that cover the holes for the configuration switches on the bottom, but this has no effect on function.įor those of you who know about the older SS gear, you have heard of the legendary sound quality and reputation for clean, consistent power. Reason being is that the subs I have cannot be wired up to take full advantage of the 705s 400W high current mode, but they can be setup to get that power from the PPI.Īnyway, as expected, since this is an older amp the heatsink is relatively scratched up. I actually just picked this up a few weeks ago and have been running it in the e39, but I decided to go back to my PPI PC650. I'm selling my Soundstream Reference 705s.

It appears several times, first when Crown and Catherine Banning are walking through the museum and she jokingly calls it his portrait, and particularly in the final robbery scenes when numerous men wearing bowler hats and trench coats carry briefcases throughout the museum to cover Crown's movements and confuse the security team.

Gaige and her father realized she would have to leave Eden-5 so the police and her misappropriated invention couldn't find her and after an emotional farewell, she bought a transplanetary shuttle ticket to Pandora to become a Vault Hunter.
