Fender Audio's Riff: The Ultimate Portable Bluetooth Speaker and Guitar Amp Hybrid with Unmatched Features and Sound Quality

I had the pleasure of attending the National Association of Music Merchants Show (NAMM) in Anaheim, California, from April 13-15, 2023. Among the exhibitors, Fender Audio stood out with their latest innovation, The Riff, a portable Bluetooth speaker that doubles as a guitar amp. During my exclusive interview with the brand manager, Michael Fiore, he shared their excitement about accomplishing the goal of creating a Bluetooth speaker that had as much “Fender DNA” in it as possible.

The Riff is a compact portable Bluetooth speaker and practice amp in one, with a host of useful features for musicians. It is a 60-watt, Class-D amp that has four speakers and two bass woofers. The unit has USB-C charging and a lithium-ion battery with up to 30 hours of battery life. The Riff app adds an alternative control for the EQ and volume, allowing users to adjust the guitar/music mix to taste, perfect for practice and jamming with.

What sets The Riff apart from other portable Bluetooth speakers is its attention to detail and passion for creating a product that is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. The genuine maple interface allows you to adjust the Riff's volume and EQ by simply sliding your fingers like you're shredding on a real fretboard. The Fender team paid attention to every fine detail, ensuring that the grill had little guitar picks inside, and the top emulated the guitar neck with fret markers. The bumps in the grill were even designed to emulate guitar strings

The Riff is a must-have for anyone who loves music and wants to take it with them wherever they go. With its unique design, powerful sound, and attention to detail, it’s sure to be a hit among music lovers and guitar players alike. The Riff is not just a speaker; it's a work of art. The attention to detail and the passion that went into creating this product is evident in every aspect of its design. Ultimately, it’s a great addition to Fender's home audio and guitar amp lineups, and we can't wait to see what Fender Audio comes up with next.

Discover the Game-Changing Custom Ear Monitors from Ultimate Ears PRO That Are Taking the Music Industry by Storm.

During my interview with Ultimate Ears PRO at The NAMM show in Anaheim, California, I sat down with Philippe Depallens who broke down all there was to know about this revolutionary company that not only ensures quality but also peace of mind. I learned about their brand of custom ear monitors that is transforming the music industry. Founded in 1995 by Jerry Harvey, a former touring musician and sound engineer, the company aims to deliver high-quality sound while protecting the ears from loud noises and future hearing impairment.

Their latest product, the UE Premier, is set to make an impact that is aimed to be uncontested. Boasting an impressive 21 speakers (drivers); it’s the first in the world to hold this many. This translates to an unparalleled listening experience, whether you are recording in a studio, editing a film, or performing on stage.

However, it's not just about the technology - Ultimate Ears PRO understands the importance of style and individuality in the music and entertainment industry. That's why they have partnered with Sonny Blaze, a Beverly Hills high-end jewelry designer, to create the Coda brand. Coda offers limited edition ear monitors decorated with platinum-plated, 18-carat diamonds, or silver, allowing high-profile musicians to complete their look with top-tiered monitors that fit their style and brand.

With their latest product, the UE Premier, and their partnership with Sonny Blaze's Coda brand, musicians can now have the ultimate personalized experience, both in terms of style and sound quality. With their commitment to education and awareness, Ultimate Ears PRO is not just revolutionizing the industry - they are also helping musicians and performers thrive for years to come.

Educating Musicians and Performers

Ultimate Ears PRO is a groundbreaking ear monitor that allows musicians and performers to listen to their own voice and their surroundings while performing. This means they can hear exactly what they need to hear without the need for bulky headphones or uncomfortable earplugs. Ultimate Ears PRO can be purchased directly from Ultimate Ears' website or through their authorized dealers nationwide.

Ultimate Ears PRO also provides educational resources to help musicians and performers understand how to use their monitors effectively on social media, specifically Tiktok. These resources include instructional videos that cover topics like how to choose the right size and style of ear monitor and how to properly care for and maintain them.

The Ultimate Personalized Experience

Ultimate Ears PRO is the first earbuds that can be customized to fit your ears perfectly. It is a new, innovative way of listening to music that has already made a significant impact in the industry. Ultimate Ears PRO comes with three sizes of silicone tips so you can find the perfect fit for your ears. Once you have found the right size, simply twist off one side of each tip and insert it into your ear canal until it is comfortable. Then attach both sides back onto each other and enjoy!

Conclusion

Ultimate Ears PRO is a game-changing product that offers the ultimate personalized experience and has the potential to revolutionize the music industry. It provides musicians and performers with a new way of interacting with their audience that can be invaluable for building their brand. The ability to hear your own performance in real-time gives you instant feedback on how well you are doing, allowing you to improve as an artist or performer over time.

Moreover, Ultimate Ears PRO helps raise awareness about hearing loss and how it can affect people's lives. Many people who suffer from hearing loss don't realize they have it until later in life when it becomes more challenging to communicate with others around them. By educating people about this issue, Ultimate Ears PRO is helping to prevent further complications by catching problems early on before they become too severe or permanent. In conclusion, Ultimate Ears PRO is an innovative and groundbreaking product that is transforming the music industry, and I was thrilled to learn about it during my interview with them at NAMM.
