About the MCA-30
The Anthem MCA-30 is a 3-channel power amplifier introduced around 2006, known for its robust build quality and sonic performance. It delivers 180 watts per channel into 8 ohms across three channels, making it ideal for driving LCR (left, center, right) speakers in home theater setups. The amplifier features a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz, total harmonic distortion of 1%, and a damping factor of 130, ensuring tight and fast bass with clear mids and highs. It has a gain of 29 dB, input sensitivity of 1.5V, and a high signal-to-noise ratio of 120 dB. The MCA-30 includes load monitoring to protect speakers and is praised for its transparency, clarity, and ability to handle complex multichannel dynamics without breakup. It weighs 18.5 kg and measures 194 x 438 x 310 mm. The amplifier is no longer in current production but remains a highly regarded used option with service support available from Anthem in Canada.
