 Anthem PVA-7 Multi-Channel Amplifier reviewed on AudioRevolution.com
The Anthem PVA 7 is a seven-channel, single-chassis power amplifier rated at 105 watts x 7 into 8 ohms and 140 watts x 7 into 4 ohms.
The PVA 7’s dynamic presentation of the kick-drum was pleasantly surprising in its ability to delineate the striking of the pedal against the drumhead and the clash of the cymbals with good control.
The PVA 7 deftly handled the complex multi-channel assault given by the pod racers when played at reasonable levels (albeit not at theatre volumes) that were loud enough to give you the desired impact.

 SoundStage! Equipment Review - Anthem PVA 2 Stereo Power Amplifier (6/2003)
One point of note: Neither the PVA 2 nor its sibling, the TLP 1, was at all sensitive as to whether or not the cables were shielded or unshielded -- there was nary a peep out of either unit.
With a price:performance ratio that is hard to beat, the PVA 2 has become the answer I’ve been looking for: a solid (state) recommendation for friends who desire good sound but have no intention of becoming hardcore audiophiles or spending more than they have to.
The PVA 2 is good enough to be the long-term power plant for non-audiophiles, while at the same time allowing an aspiring system builder to budget more of his or her funds on other links in the chain (such as front-end components or speakers) and still wind up with a very good-sounding, highly enjoyable system.

 Anthem PVA 2 Stereo Amplifier reviewed on AudioRevolution.com
The face of the PVA 2 is decisively sparse, with nothing more than a logo, a power light and a button to power the amp.
Connecting the PVA 2 amplifier was as simple as connecting two single-ended audio cables and a 3.5mm relay trigger from the Anthem TLP-1 pre-amplifier into the back of the PVA 2, setting the power-on mode to trigger.
I occasionally replaced the Anthem PVA 2 with the Parasound HALO A23 ($850) to assess how much of the sound characteristics were coming from the PVA 2 rather than from another component in the chain.

Now I propose you indulge in the heresy and design a PVA based media of mild clearing action, a lot less acidic, that could be of a more general application (including those little tardigrada, with his delicate calcified pieces).
