My Third Anthem Integrated 225 crapped out

[secretguy]

Just checked my old emails and I had contacted Anthem when the 1st one failed.... they said to contact the dealer

I talked to them...they just said it has to go back to Anthem. No mention of them taking responsibility for their design flaw.

FWIW, I sent an email to Anthem asking about runaway volume on the 225 and they acknowledged there had been some issues. However, they said they had recently released a firmware update to address the issue.

I ran my Rogue with PSBs with good results. Check this one out:

That was going to be my recommendation too...!!! :thmbsp:

Thanks for the update....to bad they had not addressed it last year or the year before . I really liked the amp, smooth effortless power and all that good stuff. The new ROTEL is working fine for me. Had to change my phono preamp seems the Jasmine overloads the Aux inputs, now using a CIA VPP-1 and it sounds just fine too. I will put the Jasmine in my secondary system.
