{"product_id":"anthem-p5-statement-amplifier","title":"Anthem P5 Statement Amplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy design, P2 and P5 amplifiers are powerful independent “monoblock” amplifiers. Each channel is self-contained on its own glass-epoxy circuit board and heatsink and benefits from an independent power supply. Since there is no common audio path between channels there is a complete absence of crosstalk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrequency-response channel matching is superb. The musical picture is seamless and exquisitely detailed with a multichannel soundstage that is astonishingly transparent, cohesive and three dimensional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eP2 and P5 amplifiers benefit from our proprietary input topology—a unique departure from the classical differential input stage. Eight low-noise bipolar input devices, hand-matched for superior balance, are configured in a complementary active-load cascoded feedback arrangement. Heat shrink tubing applied around each critical input pair ensures superior thermal tracking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigned to reduce distortion, this arrangement not only ensures exceptionally linear response, but also superior bandwidth and superb amplifier reliability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIndependent Power Supplies\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eP Series amplifiers are the cleanest, quietest amplifiers in the industry. Each amplifier channel features two separate and autonomous power supplies fed from separate transformer windings. The amplifiers are thus able to deliver stable, continuous power at maximum output, regardless of the number of channels being driven.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile some amplifiers tend to oscillate when driving lower impedance loads, the P2 and P5 remain perfectly stable under all conditions. If pushed into clipping, the proprietary anti-saturation tracking power supply circuit takes over to ensure a seamless recovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince the use of a regulated power supply in the driver stage removes noise emitted by the bridge rectifier (often heard as an audible hum at 120 Hz and its harmonics), the P2 and P5 achieve an utterly silent noise floor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMassive Toroidal Transformers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConservatively rated, in a low-profile design, these low-impedance toroidal power supplies—one per amplifier channel—make no sacrifices when it comes to delivering a continuous supply of pure, clean low noise power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are shaped to minimize hum while a sequence-controlled soft turn on significantly reduces power line transients and in-rush current during start up, thereby preventing accidental tripping of the circuit breakers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRCA and XLR True-Balanced Inputs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA three-way switch on the amplifier’s rear panel offers an RCA input, a professional quality XLR balanced input and an attenuated XLR balanced connection (for preamplifiers that require it). Gold-plated female RCA jacks and gold-plated XLR balanced connections provide the highest quality input connections\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anthem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55029102969166,"sku":"ANTHP5","price":2184500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/9000\/9422\/files\/ANTHP5-1.jpg?v=1761185060","url":"https:\/\/www.avpros.jp\/products\/anthem-p5-statement-amplifier","provider":"AV Pro’s","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
