IK MULTIMEDIA TONEX Cab | Frfr Powered Cabinet For Tonex

TONEX CAB

1x12" 700W Full-Range Powered Cabinet

Designed to set a new standard for full-range, flat-response powered cabinets, the TONEX Cab from IK Multimedia is the perfect compliment to any amp modeler. Sporting one custom 12" Celestion driver, one 1" compression driver, and up to 700W peak output power, the TONEX Cab is designed to project your tone with utmost clarity.

With AMP TONE, you can adjust the feel and response of the TONEX Cab to perfectly match your space. Combined with 3-band EQ control and a versatile IR loader with eight built-in presets, you have the power to shape your tone in nearly any way you see fit. With versatile I/O, you're set up for any performance scenario—XLR-1/4" combo instrument and aux inputs, MIDI I/O, USB, and a balanced XLR output with pre- / post-EQ / IR switch for outputs to a sound system, mixer, or another cabinet. And with a compact, lightweight plywood construction and tilt-back legs for angling the cab up onstage, the TONEX Cab will make hauling your gear out to gigs easier.

Why Go with Full Range, Flat Response?

Guitar players are used to playing live through guitar amps and not wedges or PA systems, which differ greatly in how they respond, resonate, and interact with their playing. Guitar amps positioned on the floor played at high volume have a totally different type of response than the one offered by a standard FRFR-designed cab or PA, let alone a low-cost one. Additionally, Tone Models, captures, and IR responses are all obtained through recording with a microphone in close contact with the guitar speaker. This is not how guitar players onstage typically hear their instruments at high volumes.

TONEX Cab solves all of this with a radically different design approach. It uses a series of unique solutions and advanced DSP control to overcome current FRFR limitations and offer the best possible amplification of TONEX Tone Models or any other capture system or modeler.

Amp-In-The-Room Tone and Feel

Thanks to its unique DSP algorithms, TONEX Cab’s exclusive AMP TONE control allows you to dial in the perfect amount of real amp feel and response to any room. It achieves this through precision control over the custom high-wattage Celestion 12" guitar speaker and 1" high-performance compression driver, both working in concert to deliver the optimal resonance and sound dispersion players expect from a real cab. Combined with a real plywood cabinet, this results in a playing experience that feels alive and responsive, where every note blooms and sustains just like a traditional amp, with all the benefits of digital precision.

Powerful and Portable

TONEX Cab is a highly compact 12" powered cab, leaving extra room in the van to pack two for stereo setups or to simply travel lighter. Despite its minimal size, the TONEX Cab delivers true 350W RMS, 700W peak, Class-D power.

Its advanced DSP control delivers true-amp sound at any volume, reaching an impressive 132 dB max SPL for low-end punch and clarity at any volume. While packing all this power, with the XLR output, you can easily link multiple cabs for even more power at larger venues.

Pro Features for Complex Rigs

TONEX Cab offers plug-and-play simplicity with additional pro features for more complex rigs. Features include a 3-band EQ for quickly dialing in your tone for a specific room without having to edit each preset. Eight memory slots can also store EQ settings and custom IRs, which you can control via the built-in MIDI I/O for advanced live rigs or by selecting the desired preset.

On Stage to Front Of House

TONEX Cab makes it easy to customize your tone onstage or front of house (FOH). The balanced audio output can be pre- or post-EQ / IR for cab linking or sending your tone to FOH, along with a selectable ground lift for eliminating pesky ground loops or hum.

Use the XLR-1/4" combo aux input to monitor a band mix or play backing tracks to jam along. With its flexible routing options, you can fine-tune your setup for any gig, big or small.

Stereo Configurations and Stacking

• With two or more TONEX Cabs, your setup becomes even more versatile
• Use two amp Tone Models to create a lush, immersive tone with spacious, time-based effects
• Build a wet/dry rig to control your direct/FX signal mix and keep your core tone clear and focused
• Stack multiple cabs for a massive wall of sound and increased headroom to ensure your tone stays punchy and powerful, no matter the venue size

Designed to Inspire

The TONEX Cab's Italian design and finish give it a timeless yet modern look under any spotlight. The integrated tilt-back legs let you angle the cab and direct the sound, which is optimal for hearing yourself better in small or dense sound stages. Swappable optional grills make it easy to customize your rig's appearance or keep track of different TONEX Cabs between bandmates or when running stereo rigs.

Bundled Software

TONEX Cab includes a dedicated editor for managing and loading presets and IRs. It also includes TONEX SE, a popular capture software program with 200 Premium Tone Models, unlimited user downloads via Tone.NET, and AmpliTube SE for a complete tone-shaping experience.
