Outlaw has already made it clear that they don't want to mess ith auto-EQ unless it really is an effective and beneficial system, and the solutions being used in the 1070's price range (which would include the 2805's) have not met their requirements. If we go by the 1050's amp section - which was also rated at only 65W but was widely praised as a very robust and capable amp - then it might be supposed reasonably that the difference between the two would be negligable. As for sound quality, we can make assumptions, but there's no way to know for sure until folks start putting 1070's in their homes.
