We have seen a lot of solutions for amp portability needs like the Boxthing Metal Monster, the Fender G-DEC or the just released Carr Mini-Mercury amps, even one that doesn’t look like an amp, the Stethoscope Amp, but the today’s new release is probably the one that surprised me most. The Vox amPlug is a really small and portable headphone amp (3.39″ width, 3.15″ depth and 1.22″ height) that has the classic Vox amp design that can be used to play anywhere or to practice at night.
The Vox amPlug features 100% analog circuit, analog modeling technology with simulated response from amps and aux input to play with you CD/MP3 player. There 3 models available, the Vox amPlug AC30, obviously, emulates the classic AC30 sound, the Vox amPlug Classic Rock, reproduces the high-gained sound of a 100W Marshall amp, and Vox amPlug Metal that will be the perfect headphone amp for US-made metal amps.
These headphone amps are powered by AAA batteries and they last up to 15 hours. The Vox amPlug amps’ approximate price will be $190, but their availability has to be announced yet.
