Anthem Statement P5

[Phil M]

I'm offering my Anthem P5 amp, 325watts x 5 (continuous).
The amp was bought in July last year, original invoice/packaging/documents etc are available.

This amp replaced a Bryston 4BSST and Rotel 1095, the objective being to have a single amp that would function in both a high quality B&W 2 channel and multi-channel/HT system. After research the Anthem was the only reasonably priced unit that met my needs. It outperformed the Bryston in my system (more detail and bass), and was leagues ahead of the Rotel. More recently an ex HiFi retailer friend and I did a blind AB with a Class D amp and the Nuforce Ref9 - we both picked out the Anthem as the best performer, more dynamic, musical and in control of the speaker load.

I may have to move back to Europe at the end of the summer and, after talking to Anthem, have been advised this cannot be converted to 220volts (and is too power hungry to be run off a domestic 220v to 110v transformer).

The amp is in pristine condition and available now, original price was $4999 and I will offer it for $3600 (plus shipping). This amp weighs a staggering 130lbs, and will cost around $150 to ship ground.
