The FORZA QUATTRO looks every bit as tough and unique as it sounds. Machined aluminum, distressed nickel faceplate and carbon fibre tolex give the amp an uncompromising appearance that perfectly complements its tone. The power tubes are side mounted, illuminated and visible above the front control strip, so that the source of your killer tone will be a mystery to no one. Incorporating a full spectrum, dynamic DMX-512 illumination system with an internal controller, power source and network ports, the FORZA QUATTRO directly communicates with industry standard lighting gear, as well as DAR speaker cabinets and foot controller, allowing a fully coordinated lighting routine.
DAR Amplification was established with the idea of creating a new class of super amp designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern musicians, and the FORZA QUATTRO is that amp. In addition to four channels of individually voiced tube tone, the FORZA QUATTRO incorporates features that allow seamless integration into the home studio or professional recording environment, making it all the amp you will ever need.
With the FORZA QUATTRO, DAR has created an amplifier that is uniquely suited to modern hard rock and metal genres. The four channels graduate from clean to extreme, and this amplifier is particularly sensitive to variations in input gain or volume, not to mention different pick-ups, so that a wide variety of tones are accessible via the controls on your guitar. Its design ensures that there is no need for external noise gates, even when utilizing the most extreme gain settings.
Channel 1, delivers round, bell like Clean tone with huge headroom. This channel will not distort. Voicing controls and a powerful EQ shape your ideal tone. Awesome channel platform for even the angriest of drive pedals.
Channel 2, the Crunch channel, starts out similar to channel 1 but with an additional gain stage allowing for a range of mid gain tones, blues and all the way to hard rock crunch.
Channel 3, is the all out, leave no one standing Rhythm channel with its own individual tone stack. This channel starts at beyond aggressive and continues from there to levels of gain never experienced in a guitar amp before. Even when pushed to the limit, this channel will never lose its tightness, articulation, and note definition.
Channel 4, is the Lead channel. Although it shares the insane levels of gain of channel 3, this channel has its own tonestack and allows for surgical shaping of your lead tones with unreal note clarity, and endless sustain…..ensuring you cut through any mix.
The FORZA QUATTRO is a unique amplifier platform, with extensive connectivity ensuring tight integration with modern rigs and recording environments. As with DAR’s employment of military-grade 6C33 tubes, the FORZA QUATTRO is engineered and built to military type standards, ensuring superior reliability.
