INFO FROM ACOUSTIC IMAGE

Power without corruption. This simple phrase aptly describes the Clarus series of high-powered amp heads which deliver an astounding 500 watts (into 2 ohms) of power from a tiny 4 lb. package, without compromising the characteristically open, natural Acoustic Image sound.

Clarus bass amps are designed to meet the needs of players who require extra high volume or exceptional headroom in a highly portable package. Like other AI products, they are designed to accurately reproduce the sound of all acoustic and electric instruments without compromise, with 3-band EQ to overcome room acoustics and shape the signal without adding noise.

Unlike other solid state amps, Focus delivers a distinctly warm, tube-like sound which is flat across the spectrum and not voiced to favor any particular frequency. So if you use a high quality speaker what you hear is just the sound of your instrument.

The broad range of features on all Clarus models include a parallel effects loop, balanced direct out, dual voltage operation, and a detachable power cord.
