Collection: KSR

OVERVIEW
Previously based in central Indiana, but recently relocated to the Cincinnati area, KSR Amplification started in 2009 as a local custom amplifier and gadget builder. After a few amps they began designing and building custom switchers and floor controllers. With their first standard products officially launched back in 2011, KSR stepped up to be one of the major players in the high-end guitar amplifier market. Since then they've launched the Colossus, Artemis, Gemini, Orthos, Ares, and Juno, redefining the sounds and features most thought possible on modern guitar amplifiers.

COMPANY PHILOSOPHY
Every KSR product bears the mark "Made in USA." They manufacture everything in a small shop just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio. KSR only produces equipment assembled from the finest components; the chassis are made in one of three states, the anodizing is applied in Indianapolis, the laser engraver is in-house, the silk screener is downtown, and the cabinets are built on-site. KSR believes in quality USA made products and doing their small part to help the economy back on track.

KSR president Kyle Rhodes takes pride in his work — that is why all KSR products bare his initials. You can count on supreme quality and attention to detail regardless of what it is you acquire from KSR. Of course, quality only gets you so far with something as subjective as audio production, and the KSR sound speaks for itself.

KSR makes as much as they possibly can in-house. A large CNC router is used for plywood and sheet metal fabrication. They run their CNC vertical machining center for aluminum and plastic part milling and take advantage of their CNC laser for aluminum marking and plastics fabrication. A pick & place machine helps them assemble circuit boards. And, a well equipped wood shop allows KSR to make just about anything from wood. Not only does in-house manufacturing provide the ultimate control in quality, lead-time, and maximum production flexibility, KSR can churn out prototypes and optimize designs with ease.
