Let's face it, lugging around your vintage stack isn't always an ideal option for practice. With the Behringer HA-20R-UL 1 x 8-inch 20-watt Combo Amp, you get instant access to shockingly realistic tube tones in a lightweight, wallet-friendly package. The core of this amp's sound rests in its VTC (Virtual Tube Circuit) technology, Behringer's groundbreaking answer to reproducing the fat, saturated sound of a tube amp in a portable combo. When paired with the highly musical 3-band EQ, it's easier than ever to dial in your favorite sounds. You can leave the pedals at home, too, with the built-in genuine spring reverb going from subtle reflections to spaced-out ambiance with the turn of a knob. Best of all, the HA-20R's headphone jack lets you practice with cranked tones in peace, with an auxiliary input for jamming along with songs and a Line Out with cabinet simulation to capture excellent recordings. For high-quality sound and grab-and-go functionality, plug in to the Behringer HA-20R-UL 1 x 8-inch 20-watt Combo Amp.

Tube Amp vs Solid State -?What's the Difference?


Hyper-realistic tube technology with infinite tonal shaping





Think of any rock guitar great and the legendary tone they concocted. Odds are their arena-shaking sound was thanks to one ? if not many ? fully cranked tube amps. Behringer loves the thick saturation and raw power of a cranked tube amp just as much as the next guitarist, and that's why the HA-20R boasts its original recipe for massive sound in an incredibly compact package. Utilizing game-changing VTC technology, the HA-20R produces an impressive tube-like tone, complete with the response and feel of a classic amp that Sweetwater guitarists can't get enough of. Dial in the perfect amount of gain and volume for your playing situation, and then shape the tone courtesy of an onboard 3-band EQ. By tweaking the lows, mids, and highs, you can conjure up everything from sparkling crystalline cleans and vintage rock to bluesy riffs and screaming leads. Need to add some depth to a dry signal? Kick on the spring reverb and thicken up your tone with fantastic results.





Bugera custom 8-inch speaker for full-force sound





In collaboration with lauded amp manufacturer Bugera, the Behringer HA-20R sports a custom Bugera-designed 8-inch guitar speaker producing a larger-than-life sound. Thanks to this single 4-ohm speaker, the HA-20R pumps out a highly musical, vintage voice, perfect for re-creating classic rock sounds with an incredible punch that belies its diminutive size.





Headphone input and aux jack make for easy practice





Cranking your amp is fun; unfortunately, your neighbors might disagree! Thankfully, the HA-20R comes equipped with a 1/8-inch headphone jack, making silent practice a breeze while still letting you dial in your sound. The 1/8-inch auxiliary input is tailor-made to take your practicing to the next level, giving you the option of plugging in a phone or other audio device and jamming along with songs and backing tracks ? without the need for external equipment.
