At US$839, this Anthem Integrated 225 is slightly ambitious but still within the realistic used market, sitting just above the 75th percentile of US$805 from your three recent comparable USD listings. While it exceeds the median of US$749, the price remains reasonable compared to its original US$1,499 retail, reflecting a modest discount for a well-built, high-power integrated that rarely surfaces in this condition.
The Integrated 225 is a real gem, delivering 225Wpc into 8 ohms with a wealth of features including balanced XLR, phono, and seven stereo analog inputs, all wrapped in a sleek, clean design that belies its original asking price. It’s favored for its ample power, premium parts, and five-year warranty, making it a standout for solid-state fans who want versatility without stepping into separates. If the listing includes the remote and shows no signs of wear, this is a solid buying opportunity for a respected, hard-to-find integrated that still punches above its weight.

Anthem traces its roots to the 1990s in Canada, emerging from the acclaimed Sonic Frontiers, a brand celebrated for its no-compromise high-fidelity components crafted by dedicated engineers and audiophiles. In 1998, Paradigm acquired Sonic Frontiers, including Anthem, marking a pivotal shift toward innovative home theater electronics while preserving the pursuit of pure, unadulterated sound. This heritage of passion fused with scientific precision defines Anthem's enduring Canadian legacy.
The brand excels in premium amplification and processing, renowned for AV receivers like the MRX series, high-end processors such as the AVM line, and MCA power amplifiers. These products integrate proprietary technologies, including Anthem Room Correction (ARC), the pioneering room optimization system born from advanced research. While not venturing into speakers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, Anthem's focus on electronics delivers reference-level performance tailored for discerning home theater and hi-fi setups.
Anthem holds a commanding position in the high-end market, topping charts as the leading brand for home theater preamps/processors with 30% share and ranking fourth in AV receivers at 31%. Repurchased in 2019 by Paradigm co-founder Scott Bagby and his brother John, restoring original stewardship, Anthem embodies premium Canadian engineering—reliable, innovative, and free of excess—for knowledgeable buyers seeking world-class audio without compromise.
