Plex '87 interface
Features
Authentic feel
The interaction feels like a real amplifier — you switch it on, hear the relay resonate against the chassis, the tubes warming up..
4 "jumperable" inputs
Each of the 4 inputs has its own character, faithfully represented. Just plug the cable into the input you want and "jumper" them however you like.
Authentic controls
Interacting with the Plex '87's controls feels like turning a real physical knob, shaping the harmonics and the amplifier's dynamic response.
Tube by tube
Every bit of the tubes' non-linear behavior and the amplifier's "sag" interact with each other for an authentic, immersive feel.
"Bright cap" switch
On the Plex '87, the "bright cap" can be switched off via "push-pull" on the volume knob, opening up many more possibilities and textures.
Classic cabinets included
The Plex '87 ships with native simulation of the essential cabinets, for a simple, complete experience. Plug in and play.
