A tight booster for the lead channel, a beauty treatment for the clean channel and a second switchable master for solos. These are wishes that owners of classic Rock amps request again and again from custom amp modders and tuners. H&K have built a contrast with the Duotone amplifier that meets all requirements from the start. During the design they worked closely with the German amp tuning guru Dirk Bald Ringer and consequently did all the amp tuning at the factory. The result is the typical, powerful sound of British rock with radiant presences, which can be injected as needed via a huge boost turbocharger. In addition, the Duotone delivers such loud and crystal clear clean sounds that they are likely to drive many a colleague with custom amp tuning away with tears in his eyes.
Classic tube sound, no frills rock and glamorous design are the Duotone's Gold: British Rock meets German engineering.
