One Watt of Serious Amp Power!
What can a single watt do for you? A whole lot, if it's coming out of the Blackstar HT-1R! Whether you are seeking a great-sounding practice amp or want to saturate that tube power section in the studio, you'll love what this mighty little combo amp does for you. You get Blackstar's Infinite Shape Feature that takes the HT-1R to both sides of the tonal pond (both American- and British-style voicings). Dual channels give you even more sonic options on the fly, while a speaker-emulated output makes recording incredibly easy. The HT-1R shines as a practice amp; it even includes a handy MP3/line input so that you can jam along with your favorite tunes.

Patented Infinite Shape Feature
The Blackstar HT-1R is packed with a massive variety of tube tones, by virtue of Blackstar's Infinite Shape Feature (ISF). When turned fully counterclockwise, this exclusive feature lends American characteristics to your tone with a tight bottom end and powerful mids. When you turn it all the way to the right, you'll enjoy a British sound that is woodier and less aggressive.
Loaded with player-friendly additions
The level of tone packed inside the HT-1R is impressive for a tiny 1-watt amp. And it's loaded with features that are sure to add excitement to your practice sessions. A speaker-emulated output injects your recordings with the dimensional sound of a miked-up cab and loads your amp properly for silent practice. You can also run it straight to a PA. The stereo MP3/line input makes jamming along with your favorite songs and backing tracks a breeze. You also get an external speaker output, so you can add an extension cab. Beyond that, the HT-1R features a built-in reverb effect that provides lush ambience without washing out your playing.
