Whether for practice sessions or studio recording, the HT-1R MKIII is the perfect choice for guitarists looking for versatility and sound quality.

The evolution of a classic

Since the introduction of the original HT-1 in 2010, Blackstar has established itself as the leading brand for low power amplifiers. With the HT-1R MKIII, Blackstar continues the success story and expands the concept with modern features such as Cabrig speaker simulation and a USB-C port. These new features make the amplifier an ideal tool for guitarists who value flexibility and modern technologies.

Classic tube sound at low volumes

The HT-1R MKIII is a tube amplifier equipped with an ECC83 preamp tube and an ECC82 power amp tube. Thanks to its 1-watt output, it delivers a rich, warm tube sound even at low volumes. The combination of clean and overdrive channels and the voice switch offers a total of four different sounds - from crystal-clear clean tones to powerful overdrive sounds.

Flexibility thanks to ISF and Cabrig technology

The patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) control allows guitarists to seamlessly switch between American and British sound characteristics and explore all the nuances in between. With the Cabrig speaker simulation, Blackstar takes flexibility to a new level: you can choose between 100 different cabinet, microphone and room configurations. Up to three presets can be stored and recalled directly on the amplifier, making setup for different sound preferences much easier.

Modern connection options

The USB-C connection enables a direct connection to a computer so that the amplifier can be used as an audio interface for recordings. Other connections such as Line In, Line Out / Phones and a Speaker Output (for speakers with 4 to 16 ohms) make the HT-1R MKIII a versatile companion. A footswitch connection expands the possibilities for live and studio environments.

Compact design and simple operation

With dimensions of just 311 × 306 × 178 mm and a weight of 5.6 kg, the HT-1R MKIII is extremely compact and easy to transport. The 8-inch speaker delivers a surprisingly full sound despite its size, while the intuitive user interface with controls for gain, volume, EQ / ISF and reverb makes it easy to adjust the sound. The elegant black finish also makes the amplifier an aesthetic highlight.
