Custom-Tuned Drivers Deliver Studio-Grade Guitar Tone

Forming the core of the Spark NEO Core are 40 mm custom-tuned drivers engineered specifically for guitar, bass and acoustic instruments. These full-range drivers handle everything from sparkling cleans to high-gain riffs with realistic dynamics and clarity. The closed-back, noise-isolating design creates a focused listening environment, letting every note, bend and nuance come through naturally. The result is deep, punchy lows, articulate mids and detailed highs that make practicing feel like recording through a professional rig.

Wired Design for Latency-Free, Plug-and-Play Performance

Simplicity meets performance with Spark NEO Core’s wired 1/4" instrument input—just plug in and play. This direct connection eliminates latency and signal loss, delivering a perfectly responsive feel that mirrors your amp or pedalboard. No setup, no syncing, no Wi-Fi—just instant tone when inspiration strikes. It’s a complete guitar rig that fits in your backpack, ideal for quiet sessions, late-night jams or travel practice.
