You can change the combo's five-watt output to a comfortable room volume of 0.5 watts in seconds with the Power Reduction switch. Thanks to push/pull connection of the rear amplifier, the HT-5R MkII offers a full sound with the character of more powerful instruments even at minimum volume settings. This makes it a great choice for home practice/composing as well as studio work.
The combo offers two channels, i.e. clean and overdrive, plus the ability to select between the two sound modes of each channel with the Voice buttons. On the top panel of the combo you will find, in addition to the separate controls for each channel, a common three-band EQ with an added ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) control that allows you to choose between American and British sound character. A built-in studio-quality reverb effect gives your guitar tone a nice boost.
A real step up from the basic HT series versions comes in the form of connectors and with that, expanded wiring and output options. The rear panel offers an effects loop input/output for integrating your favorite boxes, three outputs to external speakers (1x 16, 1x 8, 2x 16 ohm), a headphone/line output with speaker emulation, XLR DI output, mp3/audio input, footswitch input, and USB Audio jack so you can easily convert awesome tube sound to recording.
A dual channel footswitch is included (switching channels and selecting between two channel/voice sound characters).
