Anthem MCA225 Gen2

The Generation 2 MCA 525, MCA 325 and MCA 225, designed and built in Canada,are like no other amplifiers in the world:custom low-noise high-power toroidal transformers; high-current bipolar output transistors; high-quality filter capacitors; advanced power supply regulators;oversized aluminum heatsinks; customdesigned dual binding posts; and patented auto-on/off circuitry.
Superior craftsmanship that is reflected in clean,clear,audiophile-quality sound from top to bottom of the frequency spectrum.
