Anthem STR Integrated Amplifier

Premium Stereo Integrated Amplifier • 200W/Ch into 8Ω • 400W/Ch into 4Ω • 550W/Ch into 2Ω • ARC Genesis • 32-Bit/384kHz USB DAC • MM & MC Phono • Dual-Subwoofer Bass Management

Reference Two-Channel Amplification with ARC Genesis and High-Resolution Digital Audio

The Anthem STR Integrated Amplifier combines a powerful high-current stereo amplifier, premium preamplifier, sophisticated DAC and Anthem Room Correction in one reference-quality two-channel component. Delivering 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 400 watts into 4 ohms and 550 watts into 2 ohms, the STR provides substantial current reserves for demanding bookshelf and floorstanding loudspeakers while preserving the resolution and control expected from a high-end separates system.

Alongside its formidable amplifier section, the STR provides asynchronous USB audio, AES/EBU, coaxial and optical digital inputs, balanced and single-ended analog connectivity, dedicated MM and MC phono stages and advanced bass management for one or two subwoofers. ARC Genesis, Analog Direct and Home Theater Bypass give listeners the flexibility to choose between sophisticated room-optimized playback and a purist analog signal path depending on the source and system.

Highlights & Benefits

  • 200W Per Channel into 8 Ohms — High-current output increases to 400 watts into 4 ohms and 550 watts into 2 ohms for excellent control of demanding loudspeakers.
  • ARC Genesis Room Correction — Anthem's advanced acoustic-calibration system optimizes loudspeaker and subwoofer response with up to four storable profiles.
  • High-Resolution USB DAC — The asynchronous USB input supports stereo PCM up to 32-bit/384kHz and DSD up to 5.6MHz.
  • Dedicated MM & MC Phono Inputs — Separate shielded phono stages accommodate moving-magnet and moving-coil cartridges without requiring an external phono preamplifier.
  • Advanced Dual-Subwoofer Management — Configure one or two powered subwoofers in mono or independent left/right operation with crossover and ARC optimization.

Technology & Design

High-Current Bipolar Output Stage — Eight bipolar output devices per channel and a substantial toroidal power supply provide the current delivery needed for stable performance into low-impedance loudspeakers.

Advanced Load Monitoring — Anthem's proprietary ALM system continuously monitors temperature, current and voltage to protect the output section without compromising normal audio performance.

32-Bit Digital Processing — Lower-resolution digital signals are processed through Anthem's high-resolution conversion platform, while analog sources can be processed internally at 32-bit/192kHz when ARC and bass management are enabled.

Analog Direct & Home Theater Bypass — Analog Direct bypasses A/D conversion and DSP for purist playback, while Home Theater Bypass allows the STR's power amplifier section and main loudspeakers to integrate with a compatible surround processor.

FAQ — Anthem STR Integrated Amplifier

How much power does the Anthem STR Integrated Amplifier produce?

The STR delivers 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms and 550 watts per channel into 2 ohms.

Does the STR include Anthem Room Correction?

Yes. ARC Genesis is built into the STR platform and supports up to four storable profiles for different listening arrangements or system configurations.

Can I connect a turntable directly to the STR?

Yes. The STR includes separate moving-magnet and moving-coil phono inputs, allowing compatible cartridges to connect directly without an external phono stage.

Does the STR include built-in music streaming?

No. The STR has Ethernet connectivity for ARC, firmware and control, but Anthem confirms that it does not include Wi-Fi or an internal music-streaming platform. A separate streamer can be connected through its analog or digital inputs.
