The Twin-City™ is an active amp selector that lets you connect any two guitar amps and switch between them or drive them both simultaneously without noise, loss of gain, or any degradation to your natural guitar tone.

The Radial Twin-City uses a class-A input buffer to drive the amp outputs, which reduces susceptibility to noise and allows for completely silent switching on stage. To eliminate hum and buzz from ground loops, the Twin-City is equipped with an isolation transformer on output-B, along with a ground lift switch and 180⁰ polarity reverse switch that ensures both amplifiers play back in phase with each other. At the input, Drag Control load correction allows you to recreate the natural load on the pickups as if you were connected directly to a tube amplifier, allowing the natural tone of your instrument to shine through.

Features:
• Class-A audio signal path for high quality audio
• Drag control load correction for natural feel
• Isolated output to eliminate hum & buzz
• Electronic Impulse Switching to eliminate popping

Benefits:
• Delivers the natural sound of your guitar to your amp
• Lets you transition between amps without noise
• Super compact, fits on any pedalboard
• Buffering circuit lets you drive long cables without hum

Cool Stuff:
• Same signal path as the JD7 used by Vai, Lukather, Santana
• 180° polarity reveres switch ensures amps play in phase
• Easy to see LED indicators lets you know which amp is active
• No noise. Now that’s really important!
