Design

Anthem's one simple goal – is to design, engineer and manufacture audio/video products that deliver premium performance and convenience at a reasonable price. Anthem does this by spending thousands of hours selecting and testing components, carefully designing their own circuit topologies, and backing them with robust power supplies that ensure maximum long-term quality and reliability. They achieve this with their team at the Paradigm/Anthem Research Center and their decades of combined experience.
