ACUS ONE 8 Acoustic Instrument Amplifier including Cover
ACUS has the luxury of looking back on a long tradition. The company owner and his son Ferdinando Emanuele, have been working together with a bunch of international artists. The sound quality is paramount. For more than 15 years the ACUS team developed first-class amplifiers for leading companies in the field of acoustics. All of that know-how and research has now gone into a product of their own.
The One series impresses with its clear sound and modern design. The loud speakers are developed by ACUS and made in Italy. A carrying handle on top and a vibration-free, angled front grill rounds of the aesthetic.
The resonance filter of the One 8 prevents feed-back from microphones and pickups. The Gain control and a peak LED are further highlights.
