Additionally, the HA-40R includes bass, middle, and treble tone controls, allowing for extensive sound shaping. There is also a real spring reverb with a dedicated Reverb control to add depth to your sound. The HA-40R is designed with modern functionality in mind. It includes headphones and line outputs, both with integrated speaker simulation, ideal for silent practice and/or connecting to a recording interface or PA system. An aux input lets you plug in a music player to jam along with your favorite tracks. For added versatility, the amplifier has a 4-ohm speaker output to connect an external speaker cabinet for an even bigger sound. A footswitch connector allows for hands-free remote switching of channels and reverb (footswitch available separately) during live performances. This combination of features makes the HA-40R a highly adaptable and reliable amplifier for guitarists of all levels.
- Under the hood of this compact combo amplifier, is Behringer's proprietary VTC (Virtual Tube Circuit) technology.
- Designed to reproduce the saturation and compression of larger-than-life classic tube rigs, VTC delivers authentic tubelike tone, touch, and feel, but with the reliability of solid-state construction.
- To deliver a big sound from such a compact cabinet, the HA-40R is equipped with a custom-made, heavy-duty Bugera 10" vintage guitar speaker.
- Lovingly handcrafted and designed by the engineering experts at Bugera specifically for use in the HA Series, the speaker features vintage voicing for classic sound reproduction.
- If you want to experiment with external cabs or hook up your HA-40R amp to a big rig for larger gigs, use the speaker output on the back.
- Clean channel with independent level control ranges from pristine sparkle to fat warmth, perfect for capturing vintage tones, modern cleans, and for use as a pedal solution.
- Overdrive channel with independent gain and level controls ranges from vintage drive to modern high-gain saturation—ideal for lead, rock, and metal tones.
- 3-band EQ with bass, mids, and treble provides powerful tone-shaping options.
- HA-40R offers the sound of a real, onboard spring reverb, complete with dedicated control, just like those classic tube amps of the '60s.
- The reverb is capable of smoothing out your tone or replicating the vintage surf rock reverb effects of yesteryear.
- Set the dial low to add subtle bouncy ambience, or crank it high for huge, wet, spring saturation.
- Hit the stage without waking your neighbors. The 3.5mm headphones output with speaker simulation lets you practice anytime without disturbing others.
- The Aux input enables you to connect a mobile device or external music player and play along with your favorite songs and backing tracks without the need for an additional Hi-Fi or PA system.
- The Line output with speaker simulation lets you connect to a recording interface and easily capture guitar-amp tones directly to your DAW.
