Description
The MCA 225 GEN 2 is a 2-channel power amplifier from Anthem's completely redesigned MCA GEN 2 series, engineered and crafted in Canada for lower THD, lower noise, and higher current output into demanding loads. It's built around a custom low-noise toroidal transformer, high-current bipolar output transistors, and Anthem's next-generation Advanced Load Monitoring (ALM) technology, with a cosmetic design that matches the AVM 70 and AVM 90 processors.
Features
