Roland KC-220 Battery Powered Stereo Keyboard Amplifier

Roland’s KC line of amplifiers have been successfully supporting keyboard players for many a year, providing brilliant hi-fi sound quality, superb build standard and durability, and most of all, complete reliability.

There's nothing worse than having to use equipment you don't have full faith in, but luckily Roland tick that box with the KC220, a reliable piece of kit that provides you with peace of mind.

The KC220 produces top quality full-range stereo sound and is the ultimate mobile keyboard amp thanks to its handy battery-powered operation. It also features built-in DSP effects, a dedicated auxiliary input, and support for an XLR vocal mic, which enables it to double up as a vocal PA if required. Capable of producing a huge sound, the compact KC-220 is the perfect amp for a variety of situations, whether they be rehearsals, professional performances, or impromptu street gigs.

The KC-220 is capable of full-range stereo sound backed by 30 watts of power (15 watts x 2), channelled through two bespoke 6.5-inch speakers, and two custom tweeters. Paired with an advanced power section optimized for efficient battery operation, the KC-220 can easily and smoothly reproduce the wide frequency range of 88-note stage pianos, organs, and synthesizers, as well as rhythm machines and other electronic instruments.

C-220 is also an all-in-one portable stereo mixing system. Three 1/4-inch line input channels support keyboards, drum machines, and various electronic instruments, and Channel 1includes an XLR input for using a vocal mic. There’s a dedicated aux channel with 1/8-inch and RCA inputs for connecting smartphones, music players, and other devices.

The KC220 features some high-quality DSP effects, such as normal and wide stereo chorus effects, stereo reverb for vocals and instruments and many more, all of which can be controlled by an optional footswitch. A master EQ is also available to help tweak your overall sound to suit the venue.

The KC-220 is equipped with mono/stereo line outputs, allowing you to interface with PA systems, stage monitors, or recording devices. Plugging into the Phones jack mutes the onboard speakers, perfect for private practice sessions and checking sounds on stage with headphones.
