Blackstar HT5R MkII 5W 1x12 Inch Valve Combo Amp with Reverb
SKU: HT-5RC
Introducing the HT-5R MKII
Back in 2008 our HT-5 took the world by storm, setting the precedent for low wattage home and studio amps; now, the HT-5R MkII takes this revered design a step further with incredible performance and game-changing new features from dynamic power reduction to 0.5W and footswitchable voices, to XLR DI out and direct USB recording.
Low Wattage Valve Goodness
Valve amps sound best when cranked; the unique feel, dynamics and natural compression of a valve power stage running hot is widely considered the holy grail of guitar tone. The problem is turning your 100W valve amp up to these volumes is neither practical for yourself, nor your neighours. Our HT-5R MkII, with its low powered push-pull 12BH7 power amp, produces the crunch and break-up characteristics of a traditional 100W output stage at volumes suitable for home practice and recording.
Perfect for Practice & Recording
Alongside providing capture-ready valve tones at any volume, HT-5R MkII comes equipped with a direct USB output for the simplest way to get valve tones into your recordings without the need for an interface. Also included is a fully specified stereo recording output via XLR and jack with selectable cabinet simulation options of 4×12 or 1×12.
The best part? These amps have in-built load protection, meaning you can use them without a cabinet connected for silent practice and recording.
Killer tones and innovative features make the HT-5R MkII the ultimate studio and practice valve amp. The MkII’s completely new design takes the performance of this award-winning tone machine to a whole new level.
