HT5RH 5w Tube Head

The popular small tube head, the Blackstar HT-5H, gets an update to the Blackstar HT-5RH. This amazing Blackstar head now has reverb, a clean channel tone control, state of the art speaker emulated output and an MP3 / Line in socket for jamming.

Complete with a channel-switching footswitch the HT-5RH is the small tube amp that sounds huge. A few years ago tube amps weren't available on this kind of budget. Now, with the HT-5RH, they excel themselves with features and sweet tube sound to die for whether you need a shimmering clean or fat, searing drives.

Here's what Blackstar say about the Blackstar HT-5RH

When the original HT-5 was launched it quickly became one of the most successful studio and practice amps ever designed. Packing all the great tone and ionnovative features of the award winning HT valve pedals into a two channel, foot switchable valve amp format with a unique push-pull power amp design it was an instant classic.

Due to popular demand this groundbreaking amp was re-launched and improved with a whole host of new features:

  • Digital stereo reverb as found on the HT Venue Series and HT-1 adding a rich depth to any playing style.
  • Dedicated Tone control on the Clean Channel providing even greater tonal flexibility over the HT-5R's shimmering cleans.
  • State-of-the-art enhanced speaker emulated ouput for perfectly capturing valve tone to tape or disk
  • Stereo MP3/Line Input perfect for practice
  • The speaker emulated output can now be used at the same time as the internal speaker/extension cab, providing headphone free monitoring or the choice to blend a mic'd speaker and emulated signal together for unrivaled usability when recording at home or in the studio.

I already own a Blackstar ID15 which is very impressive with its TVP feature, however the real valves in the HTR5 are just fantastic! Lovely tones from both channels! I don't think anyone would be disappointed with the way this amp sounds.

This is a really great home recording set-up, as I've found out its fine for smaller gigs too...I've invested in a quality set of valves which has smoothed out the gain channel no end which was very much off and on. the clean channels headroom is very good too.

Trusted Customer18th Feb 2015

Fantastic overdriven sound. Clean channel is good but could be a bit crisper.

Trusted Customer23rd Jan 2015

Very good value. After a week of getting familiar with the amp the only criticism is that the control knobs should be more clearly marked - chicken head knobs would be better

Trusted Customer2nd Jan 2015

Great amp for a great price. Can't believe the kind of tone you can get from it. Excellent value and an amp for keeps!

Trusted Customer8th Oct 2014

For the money I dont think you could buy a better amp. this has all of the tone you could ever need from metal to blues. the tones are organic and warm. very nice amp

Trusted Customer26th Feb 2014

Great change from my heavy single channel vox ac15c2. Much prefer the blackstar. The head and 1x12 cab is lovely quality to the touch. The 1x12 cab seriously packs some punch and the 5w head is plenty loud enough dont be put off by a small head its insane

Trusted Customer16th Feb 2014

Absolutely amazing! Couldn't be happier with this amp!

Trusted Customer29th Dec 2013

I adore this mini stack, just quiet enough for home use but with superb tone and more flexibility and muscle than the HT1R that I'd bought previously.
