Teenage Engineering EP-35 K.O. AMP

Teenage Engineering EP-35 K.O. AMP – Portable amp for everyone

The EP-35 K.O. AMP is a battery-powered amp built for jams where several people want in at once. Guitar, microphone, line source, Bluetooth and USB audio all play through the same 35 W speaker at the same time, with no channel to select and no menu to learn. II and the rest of the EP family.

Key Features

• Everything plays at once: guitar, mic, line, Bluetooth and USB inputs are summed into one mix automatically.
• Style-based FX: eight guitar and eight mic presets, each dialled in with a single amount knob.
• Battery powered: up to 12 hours of play time and a full charge in about 2 hours over USB-C PD.
• USB audio interface: connects to a computer or phone as a sound card with an 8-channel output.
• Auracast stereo: pair a second EP-35 over Bluetooth LE Audio and tilt each unit to set left or right.
• Built for outdoors: splash-proof body, carry handle, storage compartment and a camp light that turns on when you open it.

Customer Benefits

Most practice amps assume one player. The EP-35 assumes a room, or a campsite. A guitarist, a singer and a friend with a phone can all plug in and hear each other straight away, with gain for mic, guitar and line tucked behind the rear grille so the top stays simple. The FX skip parameter menus: pick blues, twang, indie or overdrive for guitar, or radio, pop and robo choir for the mic, then turn one dial. When the session moves to the desk, the same box becomes a USB sound card for recording, and the EP-plug port plays audio straight from a thumb drive or an FM radio accessory.

Pros & Cons

✅ Pros:

• Six sources play together with no input switching
• Phantom-powered XLR input handles condenser mics
• Doubles as a USB audio interface and Bluetooth speaker
• Two units pair into a wireless stereo set

⚠️ Cons:

• FX are presets with one amount control, no deep editing

• Splash-proof only, not waterproof

If your jams involve more than one instrument and rarely happen near a wall socket, the EP-35 K.O. AMP keeps everyone plugged in and heard.
