MCA 525 GEN 2
Multichannel muscle for your home theater Anthem's MCA 525 Gen 2 is overbuilt to provide your five-speaker surround sound system with all the power it needs, and then some. It follows in the footsteps of the impressive first-generation MCA 525 , with meaningful improvements. It's been completely redesigned, with shorter internal cabling that creates a smoother circuit pathway. Why does that matter? Because a well-designed amplifier can do a better job of controlling the stop-start motion of your speakers' drivers, enhancing virtually every aspect of sound quality from deep bass, to dynamics, to soundstaging. Home theater hero Usually power amps like this one are paired with A/V preamp/processors . Anthem's MRX Series home theater receivers have preamp outputs, so you can easily connect the MCA 525 Gen 2 and use it to drive your front left, right, and center channels, plus two back speakers or surrounds. That surge of added power does wonders for music and movie soundtracks. Inside the Anthem sound The MCA 525 Gen 2's rated power output provides a clue to this amp's unshakeable grip on the music. It produces 225 watts per channel at 8 ohms, 400 watts into 4 ohms and an incredible 600 watts into 2 ohms! There are two beefy toroidal transformers inside to ensure stable, noise-free performance. And each channel has eight bipolar output transistors, to deliver loads of effortless high-current power. The typical A/V receiver uses only two output transistors per channel. Every feature has been optimized so that you'll hear clean, transparent sound emerging from an eerily quiet background. Made in Canada, respected around the world For more than two decades, Anthem has been making award-winning high-performance audio/video equipment for music and home theater.

Review
For a long time I chose a multi -channel power to replace the multi -channel mouth 1075 to the columns of the Dinaudio EVK series (so if anyone is interested in the alternative to parasounds, then pay attention). As a reference amplifier, I used the stereo of Rotel 1080 and I liked the speakers with it, but with the multi -channel they did not even sound like that. As an alternative, there were options:
1) Emotif - (subjectively no, China Chinese)
2) Rotel "more" 1585 (it seems that everything is the same for more money that was supposed to give the desired result but not to bring anything new, American China)
3) Parasound as a "best option" to Dinaudio (I have a certain biased attitude to the parasound, so it is also not, Taiwan?s production, and Taiwan does good things)
4) atem (I did not know anything about him, I found on the American forums what is a company in Canada, which makes an amplifier for the American market, such as Hello Rotel, according to reviews, it seems to be norms, but we generally have little information about it, only reprinted reviews)
On this, the options ended as it further began for a million. I thought about a year and in the end decided to buy the most unverified option - Anthem.
Not disappointed. The assembly is excellent, made in Canada if it is important to someone. The most important thing for me is that the nature of the sound remained the same as the grollers (hello to the parasounds), he did not become softer/chewing/some other, he remained exactly the same as I like, but he became better, as if cleaner, more details appeared as in HF So in the basses, some new tools became heard, buzzing in the room completely disappeared, and a new feeling of "scene breadth" in some stereo tracks seems to be added as if it was playing a multi -row. In general, it sounds better than my reference stereo of Rotel, and if you compare it with a multi-channel 1585, I think the difference in price will be practically justified, well, maybe 10-15 percent per Canada so I recommend.
