Re: Any Orange users?
I own an AD15/12. It's a nice 15-watter with a unique British tone -- not really Vox or Marshall or HiWatt, but somewhere in that mix I suppose. It has a lot of mid-range and high end, but not a lot of low end. It is very quiet at idle, and the build quality and components are excellent. The tone controls are very responsive, and the master volume works well -- 10 o'clock and up let the amp breathe nicely. I sometimes think the Vintage 30 speaker is a bit harsh in the upper mids, so I've thought about replacing it. The Orange website has a decent forum with good user opinion and info.

Re: Any Orange users?
I am not an Orange owner.
Wish I was though
Mind you, most of my playing is at bedroom level, so a V-amp and tranny fender do me just nicely at the mo... but playing very loudly in front of an Orange half stack sure does sound nice!!!

I play through a old 70's Orange OR-120 head (which is a non-mastervolume model) through a beat up Orange 4x12. Sounds great for Blues & Rock n Roll! Which basiclly is what I play. One of the best amps I've played through anyway. Here's a picture of it:
except for the offical orange forum you should really check out the one at the plexi palace here: http://vintageamps.com/PlexiPalaceUBBcgi/ultimatebb.cgi

Re: Any Orange users?
Exactly right my friend
My Orange is a single channel, master volume 30w head. I use mine with either a Marshall 1936 2x12 cab or (when space allows) a 70's Orange 4x12 cab with Celestion and McKenzie speakers.
I've used both setups (head + 2x12 and head + 4x12) at gigs over the last few weeks and the head with the Orange 4x12 is definitely a killer sounding setup.
It's loud as hell too! I used it at a Battle of The Band gig last week and with the amp on 7, I had ringing in my ears for about 3 days after
nuntius said:Yeah, I think he has an AD30? I dunno I forgot, but I'm sure he'll see this thread soon
