Small amp, big sound

Described by the brand as a “pint-sized powerhouse”, this 15-watt combo is designed for use in the bedroom, desktop or in a jam session.

Its in-built tonal options include three analogue channels – clean, drive and lead – that can be further shaped by a three-band EQ and a gain control. The amp is also loaded with a single four-inch, custom-voiced speaker and offers a four-ohm cabinet output for louder volume requirements.

Integrated audio interface

True to the iRig brand, the Micro Amp also features an integrated iOS/USB audio interface, derived from the iRig HD 2 mobile guitar interface.

While connected directly to your iPhone, iPad, Mac or PC, you can access IK’s AmpliTube – it’s included here – for a plethora of processing options. The AmpliTube CS app for iOS provides 10 amp and 26 stompbox models, while the AmpliTube 4 for Mac and PC offers nine amp and 10 stompbox models for free.

If you can’t find something you like, there’s also a tonne of other options available as in-app purchases, including licensed recreations of Fender, Orange and Mesa Boogie favourites.

Other features

In terms of power requirements, iRig’s Micro Amp requires six AA batteries or a nine-volt power supply. In addition to its main guitar input, the device also features an aux input and a headphone output for quiet practice.
