Anthem Statement P2 (£3850)

摘要

Owned by Paradigm, Canada's largest speaker manufacturer, the Anthem electronics brand is renowned for its high value AV offerings. While its 'bread and butter' receivers are made in China, its premium Statement components are built entirely in-house, this massive P2 power amp sharing the same case as the company's five-channel P5 [see HFN June '09] that draws so much current it needs two power cords. Just as in the P5, each channel of the P2 is built as a monoblock on its own PCB with substantial heatsinks fitted with thermal sensors to monitor operating temperature.
