Blackstar BEAM SOLO Headphone Amplifier

In partnership with TONE3000, Beam Solo is now the first headphone amp in the world to natively run Neural Amp Modeller (NAM) technology. Available as a FREE firmware update, Beam Solo users can now load NAM A2 Lite captures directly into their device, unlocking an entirely new world of authentic amp tones and neural modelling accuracy.

THOUSANDS OF CAPTURES. ENDLESS INSPIRATION.
Powered by TONE3000's advanced NAM A2 engine, Beam Solo now gives access to a growing open-source ecosystem containing thousands of amp captures created by players and tone enthusiasts worldwide.

Step into a world-class studio - anytime, anywhere. The BEAM: Solo redefines the headphone amp experience, delivering Blackstar’s signature tone in a compact, intuitive package. Designed for electric, acoustic, and bass guitar, it sets a new benchmark in sound quality, ease of use, and app integration.

Unlike basic alternatives, our best-in-class mobile app puts photo-realistic amp heads, cabinets, mics, and pedals at your fingertips. Access and contribute to an active online community, where you can download, share, and showcase patches with friends and fellow musicians via social media. Built-in tuner and metronome features ensure you’re always in tune and on time, helping you make the most of every session.

The dynamic light beam provides real-time feedback, making tone adjustments clear and precise - with or without the app. The SpeedDial control wheel offers effortless access to core settings for adjusting on the fly, while our XpressFX control streamlines FX adjustments for seamless performance.
