About the Line 6 AMPLIFi™ 75
Connecting two worlds
Connecting two worlds
What happens when you cross a Bluetooth® speaker with a highly-customizable guitar amp? You get Line 6's AMPLIFi 75 which excels at both. Instead of a stripped-down compromise, Line 6 decided to build an amp that lets you plug in your favorite guitar, set its tone from more than 200 settings, and hook up a mixer, microphone, headphones, or a portable audio player. Then they took it a step further by enabling you to pair your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, so you can stream your music and control the AMPLIFi 75 wirelessly. Line 6 then topped it all off with its ability to automatically adjust the tone of your guitar while playing songs from your library for the ultimate jam session, as well as create, share, and rate your favorite tones with other guitarists online.
The Amplifi Remote app lets you pick a classic amp and tweak the settings for your perfect tone.
Far beyond a guitar amp
When I endlessly annoyed my parents by cranking up my first guitar and amp, I had to stay right in front of the amp to use its simple volume and tone knobs to get the sound I wanted. The AMPLIFi 75 provides conventional knob controls, conveniently located within its integrated carrying handle. It comes loaded with several preset tones, tap tempo, and a tuner. But the big evolution is this amp's ability to go anywhere in the room — you just need to have your Bluetooth device near to crank it up, play your music, and adjust your guitar settings.
Speaking of settings, you gain 200 presets using the free AMPLIFi Remote® app. You're able to edit each immersive aspect of these presets to personalize it or create a tone of your own. Channel your inner Clapton, Slash, Hendrix, and Montgomery by choosing from various amp styles, distortion pedals, and classic cabinet designs to hone in on that sweet sound you're after. And once you've got it, you can save it, rate it, and share it with the AMPLIFi community. If you have a recording interface, the AMPLIFi 75 enables you to save your session on your Mac and PC for a permanent demo.
Its stylish look and wireless capability let you place it anywhere in the room, while you can use its app for control.
A solid wireless speaker
In addition to its amp prowess, the AMPLIFi 75 delivers big sound from music on your paired Bluetooth device for just about any room size. Unlike a dedicated guitar amp with a single speaker, this Line 6 amp combines 75 watts of power with an 8" woofer, two midrange drivers, and two high-frequency drivers. In guitar mode, the 8" driver functions as your main speaker while the other drivers deliver the stereo effects. In music mode, all speakers combine to offer superb full-range sound. Its humble looks and wireless capability disguise its audacious guitar side, letting you place it just about anywhere in the room — a great multi-function option for anyone trying to preserve some space in their room or apartment.
Lots of connectivity
In addition to the top-mount guitar jack, the AMPLIFi 75 offers a 1/4" headphone jack for private jamming and an 1/8" aux input for directly connecting your portable music player. A 1/4" TRS input lets you connect a microphone and mixer to be your own one-person band. The rear-panel USB port provides the connection to your computer for recording and firmware updates. Line 6 even included an RJ-45 connector for their compatible foot controllers. It's ready for how you want to use it.
Praise for the Line 6 AMPLIFi 75
"The AMPLIFi 75 immediately integrated into my living room in a way I've always wanted a guitar amp to. Up to this point, all my other guitar amps were either too big to be in the living room or had to be very close to the couch to be able to reach the controls. The AMPLIFi was small enough to place on an end table, while looking cool enough that didn't make it seem out of place there. The Bluetooth connectivity allowed it to be out of reach since I could control every aspect of the amp right from my phone or tablet. But the greatest thing that the AMPLIFi allowed me to do was move my guitar practice from the music room upstairs to my living room below."
