What's unique about the brand
What reviewers are saying
We read all the reviews. Here's what reviewers feel most strongly about:
- Anthem differentiates itself by including fully powered, independent-zone subwoofer connections in their MDX series, allowing for improved bass response in each listening area.
- A key differentiator for Anthem is their proprietary ARC (Anthem Room Correction) Genesis technology, which is simple to use yet highly effective in optimizing sound for individual zones, and is included across product lines from multi-room amps to preamps.
Our favorite reviewer quotes:
- "The Anthem amp backs up this rhythmic ability with a firm grip and really good extension and control in the lower registers, which translates into some seriously slamming bass. Of all the amplifiers that I've had in my system, the P2 is the first one that well and truly controls my Hales speakers as if it's got them by the glands." (http://www.soundstagenetwork.com/revequip/anthem_p2.htm)
- "Playing this track proved to me that the M1s had the kind of tight-fisted bass control, weight, depth, and slam that I've heard from the best 150-pound amps. I heard and felt bass rolling through my room that seemed to belie the smallish size of the Dynaudio woofers."

- "From the first note, this was one of those experiences where you feel like you're hearing your music all over again for the first time. Just pure magic." (https://www.audioholics.com/av-preamp-processor-reviews/anthem-avm-90-8k-preamp-processor)
- "The STR amp is about as good a 2-channel amplifier as you are likely to find for all practical purposes. It's got low noise, plenty of transparency, scads of power reserve capability, impressive build and, by Odin's beard, those huge meters are awesome!" (https://hometheaterhifi.com/reviews/amplifier/power-amplifier/anthem-str-preamplifier-power-amplifier-review)
- "Track #6 " Remember Manhattan" produced a big WOW effect for me with chest pounding bass that laid the framework for this awesome song. Energetic, bold, lifelike, was what I was hearing from my reference speakers with the Anthem STR separates at the helm."
