Description
Unleash a world of power and versatility with the Laney Ironheart IRT SLS, a 300-watt hybrid tube amp head that encapsulates the iconic British sound in a travel-friendly package. Whether you're hitting the stage or laying down tracks in the studio, this amp head is engineered to deliver. With three full channels—clean, rhythm, and lead—you can sculpt your sound with precision using the unique push-pull EQ system. This allows you to fine-tune your tonal range beyond the standard 3-band EQ, giving you the flexibility to explore new sonic territories.
Featuring a tube-powered preamp section with two ECC83 tubes, the IRT SLS ensures your output is rich with natural saturation. Choose between high power and standard power modes, delivering up to 300 watts or 60 watts, respectively, to match your performance needs. The built-in reverb, FX loop, and speaker emulation offer comprehensive routing options, while the included 4-way FS4-IRT footswitch lets you control your sound with ease.
Studio enthusiasts will appreciate the T-USB feature, which captures both dry and processed signals, simplifying the recording process. With built-in cabinet emulation, you can even perform without a physical cabinet, routing your sound directly to a house system via the XLR DI output. Compatible across multiple platforms, including PC, Mac, iPad, and Android, the IRT SLS is a versatile tool for any modern musician.

Great and very versatile amp
I purchased this amp für 380 € used. It comes with the designated bag, footswitch and all cables. Although it looks like a superficial metal amp, I must say that's not the case. It has a very good clean tone, which stays realy clean on high volume and always with a little compression. Very nice for chicken picking.
The 2nd channel provides a very nice crunch tone with enough gain on tap to cover the classic rock genre. With the boost, there is more than enough gain and a nice volume push for solos.
The lead channel push it a little further with more mids and compression. Good for singing lead tones.
I think, real metal players might be a bit disappointed. To make it chug, you have to tweak it.
A big advantage is the compact size and light weight. Nevertheless it can be very loud. Not as loud as a Plexi Marshall or a Twin, but it comes close to a 50 watt push-pull tube amp. A loud drummer will be no problem at all. And with the more mid pronounced voicing, this little thing cuts through the mix, even if you don't crank it to the max.
All in all, I'm very impressed by the tone and feel. I play Blues, Classic Rock and this amp fits perfect.
