Anthem STR Preamplifier and STR Power Amplifier: Accuracy, Authority, Adaptability

Normally, I have a hard time listening to recordings for a period of time after enjoying the live experience, maybe for a day or so. Yes, it’s probably setting an unnecessarily high bar but I guess I’m looking for the sort of emotional connection I get from flesh-and-blood musicians in an acoustically favorable venue when I sit down in front of my audio system. I got more than a little of that when listening to canned music with Anthem’s STR electronics—it seemed that I wasn’t nearly as refractory to the appeal of my favorite recordings. That’s a distinction, for sure.

Anthem STR Preamplifier and Power Amplifier

When combined, the STR components present the music with such impact, drive, and unbridled live-music-like enthusiasm that it is impossible to not be moved by it.

Anthem STR Preamplifier and Power Amplifier Review

The Anthem STR preamplifier and amplifier are every bit the statement 2-channel products that they are billed as. Individually, they are some of the very best sounding examples of their respective categories. Together, they comprise as seamless and powerful a playback chain as you are likely to find.

Anthem STR Stereo Power Amplifier Reviewed

I have been blessed to review a lot of really cool amps recently and I would consider the Anthem STR some of the best Class AB amplification that I’ve gotten my hands on in terms of overall performance regardless of MSRP. When you factor in the price, you see how Anthem has disrupted the market yet again with a product that doesn’t just ask for consideration--it demands that you audition it.

Anthem STR Preamp and Power Amplifier Review

The STR preamp is perhaps one of the most flexible and diverse two-channel preamplifiers I've ever seen. It offers state-of-the-art performance in every mode of operation handling analog and digital sources with equal ease. The connection options the STR preamp offers are virtually limitless and the home theater bypass mode is a Godsend for those wanting to merge home theater and two-channel systems together in perfect harmony. The STR amplifier puts forth impressive power figures for an amplifier in such a reasonably sized package that is refreshingly manageable to transport. The system works seamlessly together to reproduce music with fidelity at the very highest level, especially if care is taken to set up ARC properly.

The Anthem STR Preamplifier and STR Power Amplifier represent the very best offerings from this well respected Canadian company. Designed and built in Canada, Anthem's goal was to get back to their roots in developing the very best two-channel experience and audiophile could have. The STR preamp comes armed with their ARC room correction and the STR amp boasts up to 800 watts/ch (2-ohms). We met up with Anthem's Joey Perfito at the Audioholics Showcase home to do an overview video of these products to give you an idea of what they are capable of with much more to come.

Anthem STR Pre/Power Amplifiers: The science of the music

With the STR pre-amp and power amp, Anthem has successfully migrated its innovation, digital signal processing expertise, room correction know-how and commitment to quality into the notoriously difficult high-end stereo environment. The pre-amp’s versatility and the power amp’s tremendous reserves make for a satisfying partnership, while also delivering as far as musical accessibility and engagement are concerned.

Anthem STR power amplifier

It is also noteworthy to mention how this amplifier looked after dynamics in music that on other amplifiers could come across as if somewhat restricted. The Anthem often recreated the same music with more bounce and greater contrasts between soft and loud. It produced the music with enough drama to keep its audience entertained throughout and this was especially true for my electrostatics, the likes of which can be hard to please.
