HiFi Duet
High-Fidelity Pickup + Microphone Mixing System
Introducing the HiFi Duet – the ultimate high-fidelity pickup and microphone system, now available with Emerald Guitars.

Experience unmatched clarity, depth, and dynamic range—bringing your Emerald Guitar to life like never before.
HiFi Duet
HiFi Bridge Plate Pickups
The foundation of the HiFi Duet is a pair of non-intrusive bridge plate sensors that provide exceptional tone, balance, definition, and dynamics. The lightweight pickups preserve the integrity of your guitar without altering your acoustic tone while faithfully representing the instrument’s inherent sound.
The Silo Mic Experience
Crafted with precision machining and meticulous tuning, the Silo Mic provides a pure, unaltered sound, a testament to L.R. Baggs dedication to bringing studio-quality performance to your fingertips. Leveraging L.R. Baggs acclaimed TRU•MIC technology, Silo employs a new microphone capsule and tuned suspension for enhanced ambience and dimension. It excels in providing isolation and feedback resistance, offering a plug-and-play performance in any environment. Its exceptional sound quality invites a confident comparison with your favorite studio microphones.
Multi-Pole Crossover System
The HiFi Duet features an all-discrete studio grade preamp with a multi-pole crossover system that seamlessly blends the HiFi Pickups and Silo Mic for an inspiring feel and sound in any mix position. The highly versatile system ranges between punchy and direct to open and airy studio mic’d sound and everywhere in between. As with all LR Baggs electronics, you can expect the same warmth, purity, presence, low noise, and long battery life their circuitry is known for.
