OK Native_bon, you've convinced me. I'm thinking of having a listen to it, but so as to not waste my time perhaps you would tell me which £3K and £4K amps you have already compared it to. It would be silly for me to listen to those that have already been defeated by it in your head to head comparisons, so I'll go and compare it to some others.

Well ifor, I dn't like giving names on here. All I will say, i compared it to Hifi about 3x its price piont. So made me think if it's worth paying the extra 2grand for the major names, like MF, naim, Krell..e.tc.. I think thats how good it is. But I also mentioned it's a matter of taste & music style.
As for me I will compare it to hifi 3x it's price :rockout:

so I believe that is your amp and you should go for it. The Cremona´s which are very good speakers should make it sound perfect in your home.

What seems a little odd to me Native_bon is that you say you're not prepared to throw around manufacturers names but in the same breath offer up the brand name of the amp you're impressed by!?!?!?

Well it's a little odd that, approaching your fourth anniversary of being signed up to the forum, you didn't know you could name components you don't like (why wouldn't you be able to?), but now you know, can you tell us? Even if it's a limited number, I'm sure people will be interested. It's just your personal thoughts and experience after all

No they are Yank, they tend to do mainly hi-end AV equipment, although are currently doing a cheaper range (amp, av receiver etc).

Okay, what amp did you have/currently have that the Anthem is replacing?

(reference to Canada, not the above response)I happen to own this amp, I love it it beat many separates i was looking at the time. Right as of today ill be pairing this amp with Kef Q700, cant wait to hear this combo. Before I was using Paradigm Monitor 7 MKII Se then before that Monitor Audio RS1's. I highly recommend this amp.

"Anthem is a Canadian A/V electronics manufacturer that is the sister brand of Paradigm loudspeakers; the firm is probably best known for its award-winning, home theater-oriented, multichannel audio components (such as the superb Statement D2 controller and Statement P5 multichannel amplifier Playback uses as its references)."
Lots of transatlantic reviews on the web.
