Description

The Blackstar AIRWIRE i58 is a high-performance wireless instrument system designed to give guitarists and bassists complete freedom on stage without compromising their tone or playing feel. Compact, lightweight and easy to use, it replaces your conventional instrument cable with a reliable wireless connection suitable for practice, rehearsals and live performance.

Operating on the 5.8GHz frequency band, the AIRWIRE i58 avoids the commonly congested 2.4GHz Wi-Fi range for a stable and consistent connection. Ultra-low latency of less than 6ms maintains a natural playing response, while the wide 20Hz–20kHz frequency response preserves the clarity and detail of your instrument.

A switchable Cable Tone function recreates the subtle tonal characteristics associated with playing through a traditional instrument cable, giving players the choice between a direct wireless response and a more familiar cable-style character.

With a wireless range of up to 35 metres and four independent channels, up to four AIRWIRE i58 systems can be used simultaneously, making it equally suitable for individual performers and full-band setups. The rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 9 hours of operation, with USB-C charging and automatic power-saving functionality helping keep the system ready for your next performance.

Why Choose the Blackstar AIRWIRE i58?

The AIRWIRE i58 is ideal for players who want the freedom of wireless performance while retaining the natural response and character of their instrument. Its sub-6ms latency keeps the playing experience immediate, while high-resolution transmission and a wide frequency response help preserve everything from deep bass frequencies to detailed guitar tones.

The 5.8GHz operating frequency is particularly useful in environments where conventional 2.4GHz wireless traffic is busy, while four independent channels allow multiple AIRWIRE systems to operate together. Add the 35-metre range, long rechargeable battery life and compact design, and the i58 becomes a practical wireless solution for rehearsals, gigs and everyday playing.
