Anthem Statement M1
MSRP: $3499Shipdate: 9/1/2011
Engineered with advanced load monitoring and power factor correction to satisfy demands up to 2400 W, even using a 15A line, the new Anthem Statement M1 mono amplifier annihilates perceptions that Class D isn’t suitable for hi-end audio. Frequency response is load-independent – between 4 ohms and 8 ohms there is no change in frequency response, and between 2 ohms and an open circuit the difference is only 0.1 dB! Power “doubles-down” with 1000W into 8 ohms and 2000W into 4 ohms, all at under 0.1% THD from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Occupying only one rack unit, Anthem outfitted the new Statement amplifier with a heat pipe cooling system that allows multiple M1s to be rack-mounted directly over one another. Fanless and easy to integrate, the M1 is a serious contender whether installed in the listening room or in an equipment closet. No Class D amplifier comes close to approaching the performance specifications of the Anthem Statement M1, making it the industry flagship for its class. With proprietary power management technologies making the best of current from a wall outlet, integrators and customers can rest easy knowing the Statement M1 will fulfill the most demanding applications.

1.) 1 kilowatt at 8 ohms out of 1 rack space gives the Anthem Statement M1 more power pound-for-pound, than any other Class D amplifier. 2.) Load monitoring system includes a digitally modeled time constant of the circuit interruptor to allow momentary current surges that pass before creating excessive heat. 3.) Power factor correction technology allows the Statement M1 to pull over 2 kW for musical peaks from a 120V 15A line. 4.) Can be used with 240V line for longer peak output period. 5.) Two to six times more energy-efficient vs conventional solid-state technology, at all output levels.
Integrator Benefit
The Anthem Statement M1 saves precious rack space for integrators, but more importantly, gives them a technologically sophisticated solution for their most critical audiophile customer. Due to efficient circuitry, heat output is very low despite tremendous output potential. This also allows multiple amplifiers to be stacked directly on one another. The silent, fanless design with thick aluminum faceplate and laser-cut top cover also attracts audiophile purists and cinema lovers alike to Anthem integrators. All this comes at a price that is very competitive.
Promotional Description
The single rack unit Class D Anthem Statement M1 is a one kilowatt, one rack unit, mono-block power amplifier that outperforms its class with sophisticated monitoring circuits effortlessly maintaining proper frequency response, even when powering the heaviest speaker loads using a 120V line.
