The Blackstar AIRWIRE I58 is ideal for gigging guitarists, home players, and bands wanting to go wireless without sacrificing sound quality. Operating on the 5.8GHz band, it avoids interference from busy Wi-Fi networks and delivers a steady, dropout-free connection across a 35m range. It also offers ultra-low latency and a flat frequency response, preserving the tone and dynamics of your playing. You'll get up to 9 hours of playtime from a full charge, with a quick recharge time of just 2.5 hours. The built-in ''Cable Tone'' feature lets you add a subtle high-end roll-off, giving your tone the warmth of a traditional cable if desired. Its compact and discreet design makes it perfect for live setups, rehearsals, or recording sessions. Plus, it automatically powers down when not in use, helping you save battery across gigs or practice days.
Reliable connection with no signal dropouts
The AIRWIRE I58 uses the 5.8GHz frequency band, which stays clear of most consumer Wi-Fi traffic. This means a far more stable and reliable wireless signal in venues or rehearsal rooms where 2.4GHz systems often struggle. The result is clear audio and consistent performance throughout your set, without signal dropouts interrupting your playing.
It also includes a smart anti-interference algorithm that switches frequencies as soon as interference is detected. You’ll maintain a connection even in busy wireless environments, helping you stay focused on your performance.
Natural tone and fast response
With ultra-low latency and a flat frequency response, the AIRWIRE I58 keeps your playing tight and your tone untouched. The system captures every detail of your dynamics and playing style, giving you cable-like performance through a wireless system. No high-end loss or dull signal – just clean, authentic tone.
For those who prefer a touch of vintage warmth, the switchable Cable Tone feature introduces a soft treble roll-off, emulating the natural response of a longer cable. It’s an easy way to tailor your sound to suit different instruments or amps without touching your EQ.
All-day battery life with automatic saving
The AIRWIRE I58 is built to last through long sets, rehearsals, or studio days. It delivers up to 9 hours of continuous use from a single charge and recharges fully in just 2.5 hours. So you can plug in, play, and trust it to keep going without needing to swap gear or change batteries mid-session.
An automatic shut-off feature also kicks in after 10 minutes of inactivity, helping you save power and extend battery life without needing to think about it. This is especially useful during setup breaks or between songs at practice.
Compact, practical, and band-ready
The AIRWIRE I58 is compact and designed to stay out of your way. The folding input jack fits a wide range of instruments and tucks away for quick storage. It sits securely in place during use, making it ideal for guitarists and bassists who move around during sets.
With support for up to four systems running simultaneously, it’s an ideal option for bands. Each player can enjoy a clean signal and hassle-free setup. Whether you're sharing a stage or jamming in a rehearsal room, the AIRWIRE I58 keeps every performance cable-free and consistent.
