Anthem AV MCA 325 Power Amplifier

Anthem MCA 325 2nd Generation is a 3-channel AV Power Amplifier made to complement the AVM pre-amplifier range. Anthem’s 2nd generation MCA Series delivers lower THD (for a cleaner, purer sound and lower noise for extremely quiet background hum whilst in use.

With a complete redesign internally, Anthen have also redesigned the external features in a sturdy and stylish unit that matches the AVM range wonderfully.

MCA Range

The MCA-325 Gen 2 is a 3-channel power amplifier that delivers 225 watts per-channel; it sits above the MCA 225 and below the MCA 525 which is capable of up to 5 channels. Anthem MCA Gen 2 amplifiers are designed, engineered and hand-built in Canada.

Anthem have designed the MCA Gen 2 range to be like no other amplifier range in the world by installing custom low noise high-power Toroidal transformers; high-current bipolar output transistors; oversized aluminium heatsinks; high-quality filter capacitors; advanced power supply regulators; patented auto-on/off circuitry and superior craftsmanship.

What’s New in MCA-325 Gen 2?

The 2nd generation MCA range has been completely redesigned. There is reduced cabling to help create a much smoother circuit path to maintain an unobstructed audio performance. And in keeping with the AVM range the use of low-flux Toroidal transformers and improved input transistors are incorporated to provide a greater sense of transparency, even with dynamically complex material.

The MCA-325 GEN 2 Amplifier now only uses 1.4 Watt in standby mode, 750 watts at high output; it’s a much a ‘greener’ way forward. And as with all Anthem amplifiers, they can be switched on manually, via trigger, or by sensing an input signal.

Advanced Load Monitoring

Exclusive ALM technology monitors internal temperature, current and voltage to ensure safe and uninterrupted long-term operations. This is in place just in case a fault should arise. In this unlikely situation, unaffected channels continue to play and all-channel operation resumes automatically once conditions are back to normal.
