Description
The Hughes & Kettner TubeMeister 18W Tube Head is a compact all-valve amplifier head designed for stage, studio, and home use, delivering 18 watts of power from a push-pull EL84 power section. It features two ECC83 (12AX7) preamp tubes and two EL84 output tubes, housed in a lightweight chassis measuring approximately 356 x 156 x 150 mm and weighing around 5 kg. The amplifier is built with a dual-channel layout, offering clean and lead channels with an additional boost function for extended gain range.
The control section includes gain, master volume, and a three-band EQ allowing detailed tonal shaping across both channels. A built-in four-step power soak enables output reduction from 18W down to 5W, 1W, or 0W for silent operation, making it adaptable to different environments. The amplifier also incorporates a serial effects loop and a Tube Safety Control system with auto-bias functionality, designed to monitor tube performance and maintain consistent operation.
Connectivity includes a balanced Red Box output with speaker emulation for direct recording or PA use, allowing operation without a speaker cabinet when required. The design focuses on combining traditional valve amplification with modern features such as silent recording capability and power scaling, creating a versatile amplifier head suitable for live performance, studio work, and low-volume practice.
