Considering inflation and industry changes, the P2’s current price—one penny under US$5000—is still very reasonable for what it offers. Were it priced higher, I’d expect better casework, which typically raises a product’s cost substantially without improving the sound. A longer warranty would be nice, but, frankly, five years is the standard and anything more is an exception. As it stands, then, the P2 delivers strong value, especially for those who prioritize performance over aesthetics.

My recent listening also confirms why this amp has endured. It sounded excellent at any output level—not just for the money, but in absolute terms, which means Anthem aced the original design. I think Anthem could keep selling the P2 unchanged for another 20 years and it would still hold up.
