Line 6 AmpliFi guitar amp wins MIPA 2014

On the heels of its launch at Winter NAMM 2014, Anaheim, Line 6 brought the AmpliFi guitar AmpliFier to Musikmesse Frankfurt for its first European showing. AmpliFi won a Musikmesse International Press Award 2014 in the prestigious category Most Innovative Product.

AmpliFi's five-speaker stereo design delivers detailed guitar tones, from crystal-clear highs to deep and smooth low end. Featuring two tweeters, two mid-bass drivers, and a custom guitar speaker, AmpliFi covers a wider frequency spectrum than any other guitar AmpliFier, delivering sonic details traditional amps can’t produce. The full-range speakers deliver a broad sound range, while the custom guitar speaker functions as a subwoofer. AmpliFi is available in a powerful 150-watt model or a more portable 75-watt version.
“Eighteen years ago, Line 6 revolutionized the guitar amp market by releasing the world’s first modeling AmpliFier,” said Paul Foeckler, CEO of Line 6. “And now we’re doing it again. AmpliFi completely redefines the guitar AmpliFier, bringing together our customers’ musical and personal lives like no other device.”
AmpliFi is a Bluetooth speaker system for guitarists, featuring streaming compatibility with Android, iOS, Mac and PC devices. AmpliFi combines playing and enjoying music, enabling guitarists to jam along with songs in their music library, play back tracks during band rehearsal, or crank up the volume at parties.
“AmpliFi is a groundbreaking new amp that promises to change the way guitarists jam, practice and enjoy music forever,” said Max Gutnik, VP of Products and Marketing at Line 6. “It sounds absolutely amazing and delivers a uniquely incredible experience that players of all levels are going to love. Whether listening to music, jamming with friends or creating inspiring new tones to share, AmpliFi is going to rock your world.”
The AmpliFi Remote app for iOS introduces a new world of possibilities. Guitarists can control every aspect of their tones from an iOS device. AmpliFi Remote also introduces Line 6 tone-matching technology, which automatically serves up guitar tones that match tracks in a guitarist’s music library.
With a cloud community of guitarists uploading their best patches, AmpliFi Remote provides a powerful resource for finding guitar tones. Within the cloud community, guitarists can rate their favorite tones, upload their own, and build their musical network by connecting with other musicians and fans. The AmpliFi cloud automatically keeps all devices up to date and synchronized. Guitarists can store an unlimited number of presets in the cloud—and access them anywhere.
A remote app for Android is (not yet) available.
