Five Statement monoblocks in one chassis for reference home cinema
Anthem Statement P5 is a 5-channel HiEnd power amplifier rated at 325 W x 5 into 8 ohms, 500 W x 5 into 4 ohms and 675 W x 5 into 2 ohms, with RCA/XLR inputs and multi-mono architecture.
P5 brings the Statement design to a five-channel configuration intended for high-level multichannel systems. Each channel has independent electronics, cooling and power supply; the Italian distributor source specifies five toroidal transformers, one for each channel, keeping behaviour as close as possible to five separate monoblock amplifiers.

Five Statement channels
P5 is designed for systems that apply the multi-mono philosophy to an entire multichannel block. Its five channels can power the LCR front stage plus two surrounds in a 5.1 system, or form the core amplification of a larger theatre with additional amplifiers for height and rear channels.
325 watts across all channels
Each channel delivers 325 W into 8 ohms, 500 W into 4 ohms and 675 W into 2 ohms. Output per channel exceeds MCA GEN2 and is maintained across all five channels, giving the system consistent reserve when several loudspeakers are driven simultaneously.
Five independent sections
The multi-mono construction separates all five channels with dedicated boards, heatsinks and power supplies. The distributor source specifies five toroidal transformers, one per channel: a more radical solution than the two shared supplies used in MCA and one that matches Statement positioning.
RCA, XLR and a balanced signal chain
Each channel can receive its signal through RCA or balanced XLR. Connected to an A/V processor with XLR outputs, P5 can maintain balanced connection across five channels at once, useful in complex racks and installations with longer cable runs.
Advanced Load Monitoring
Load monitoring supervises current, voltage and temperature and intervenes when operating conditions move beyond defined limits. Protection is particularly important in a multichannel amplifier of this output, where several demanding loudspeakers may require high current at the same moment.
For high-end cinema rooms
P5 is intended for home cinema systems where the five main channels should receive the same amplifier quality and reserve. It can operate as the sole power amplifier in a reference 5.1 system or be combined with P2 or M1 for larger and more specialised configurations.
