On the Anthem side, after 4 years of development we were really excited to be showing our new M1 amplifier. The Statement M1 is a single rack unit size mono Class D amplifier that outputs 1000 watts into 8 ohms and 2000 watts into 4 ohms. A class D amp, like any other amp, can be designed to either provide cheap power – or high performance. It all comes down to execution. We took the latter approach. We created an amp with balanced input and output stages and combined it with a digitally monitored switching power supply, itself fed by a power factor correction circuit. The result is an amplifier that has all the attributes of a great Class A-B amp but also provides for incredible dynamic contrasts and clarity – from an efficient and compact chassis. To make that much power and also installation friendly we utilize “heat tube” cooling so no fans are necessary. They are equally comfortable stacked on top of each other in a rack (for example 7kW in only 7 rack spaces) or next to a pair of speakers in the quietest listening room.
Do you really need that much power for a realistic and musically satisfying experience? Absolutely – you always have and now – it’s within reach.
Anthem Statement M1 will begin shipping by the end of this month! US retail price is $3500 each.
