The Anthem PVA Series is a line of multi-channel power amplifiers designed to deliver high-quality audio performance for both musical and home theater applications. These amplifiers are engineered with a focus on superior circuit design, robust build quality, innovative features, and user-friendly ergonomics, aiming to recreate the passion of live musical performances and the thrill of cinematic experiences. The series includes models with 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8 channels, offering flexibility for various audio setups.
The Anthem PVA Series amplifiers serve as the final stage in an audio system, taking a low-level audio signal from a preamplifier or surround sound processor and amplifying it to drive loudspeakers. Each channel of the amplifier is designed to deliver continuous RMS power across the full audio spectrum (20 Hz to 20 kHz) with minimal distortion. The amplifiers feature multiple input and output options to accommodate different system configurations.
The amplifiers feature single-ended RCA inputs for connecting to a preamplifier or surround sound processor. Users are cautioned against using "RCA-compatible" connectors with a hollow center pin and a hole at the tip, as this can cause internal damage to the amplifier's RCA jacks.
Each channel has red (+) and black (-) binding posts for speaker connections. Users must ensure that power is turned off before connecting or disconnecting speakers to prevent electric shock and that speakers are rated appropriately for the amplifier's output to avoid fire hazards. The binding posts accept connections from one speaker per channel, and users are advised not to overtighten them.
The amplifier offers three operational modes, selectable via a three-way switch on the rear panel:
The amplifier is equipped with a thermal shut-off feature. If a channel overheats, it will remain off until the temperature drops below a safe threshold.
