Dave went on a pedal-buying spree during COVID lockdown. I’ve dialled in my sound, so it’s time to clear out some extra gear!

Want the feel and response of a real tube amp, but without the weight, volume, or hassle? The Strymon Iridium delivers stunningly realistic amp tones in a compact, pedalboard-friendly box. With three iconic amp models, premium cab sims, and natural room ambience, you can go straight into a PA, recording interface, or headphones—no amp needed.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Three legendary amp models:
• Round – Classic Fender-style chime and warmth.
• Chime – That signature Vox-inspired jangle and bite.
• Punch – A bold, high-headroom Marshall-style crunch.
• Nine world-class impulse response (IR) cabinets—plus the ability to load your own!
• Responsive amp feel—reacts like a real tube amp to your playing dynamics.
• Built-in room ambience—adjustable for anything from a tight studio space to a lush room sound.
• Headphone out for silent practice with full amp and cab simulation.
• Super simple controls—just like a real amp, no menus or deep editing required.

Who’s This For?

• Gigging musicians who want killer tone without lugging an amp.
• Home recordists looking for studio-quality amp sounds without mics and loud volumes.
• Pedal lovers who want an amp-style platform that takes drives and modulation beautifully.
• Silent players needing an amp-in-a-box for late-night jams and headphone practice.

Bottom line? The Iridium sounds and feels like a real amp—responsive, dynamic, and insanely easy to use. Whether you’re tracking in the studio, gigging straight into the PA, or practicing in silence, it nails that tube-amp magic.
