Blackstar HT-1RH: Big Tube Tone in a Compact Powerhouse
• Small size, massive performance
Don’t let the compact form factor fool you — the Blackstar HT-1RH delivers performance that rivals much larger tube amplifiers. Inside its small chassis lies a powerful circuit featuring the brand’s signature ISF technology, rich overdrive tones, an emulated output, and connectivity for external devices.
With just 1 watt of power, this amp produces a surprisingly full and punchy sound, making it perfect for home practice, studio recording, and even small live settings.
• Tube-driven tone with versatile control
The amplifier is powered by a combination of ECC83 and ECC82 tubes, delivering warm, dynamic, and expressive sound. Inspired by the acclaimed HT-5, this model retains its tonal richness while offering a more compact and accessible format.
Two channels provide tonal flexibility:
- The Clean channel ranges from pristine clarity to light crunch
- The Overdrive channel delivers thick, high-gain distortion with excellent sustain
• Practice-friendly features
A built-in stereo MP3/Line input allows you to connect your phone, laptop, or music player. This makes it easy to jam along with backing tracks or your favorite songs — perfect for improving your skills and staying inspired.
• Unique power amp design
Blackstar engineers implemented a distinctive power amp structure where the ECC82 tube drives two separate gain stages. Even though it uses a single output tube, it does not follow a traditional Class A design.
The preamp section uses a 12AX7 tube, ensuring classic tube warmth and responsiveness even at low volumes.
• ISF technology — shape your perfect tone
The patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature), combined with a traditional 3-band EQ (Bass, Middle, Treble), gives players unprecedented control over their sound.
With ISF, you can:
- dial in classic British crunch
- achieve modern American high-gain tones
- craft a completely unique sound signature
It works across the entire frequency spectrum, maintaining musicality and responsiveness.
• ISF key advantages
- Passive circuit with natural musical response
- Affects the full frequency range
- Fully interactive tone controls
- Infinite tonal variations
- Exclusive to Blackstar products
