For some reason I thought that this forum was kaput. So happy to find that is not the case. I'm still pretty Oranged-up, what with two OBC-15s, two of the new ultra-light 1x12's and a Bass Terror 500. Along with the AD200 that was handwired as shown in Premier Guitar magazine. The AD-200 is in use a...

I'm surprised by this. In my humble experience, you find the gain setting you like, for me 10 for clean, 1 o'clock for dirty and then use the master for volume. Last summer I played at a big outdoor show with backline provided. When I went to use the provided SVT, the amp failed. Luckily I had toted...

Right you are, my friends. :( :( :( But the buyer tracked me down because he really wanted this particular amp so it's going to a very welcoming home! And it just happened that I am leaving a heavy gigging band so it may have sat around for a while. Nonetheless, what a beautifully constructed amp it...

Anyway, in a moment of temporary insanity, I sold that amp today.

I'll be left with a Bass Terror and three Orange bass cabs. Pretty stupid, if I may say it myself.

I've heard others say that one should solder in speaker wires. I do it when I'm feeling ambitious.....

!!! Didn't I read here that a "flat" setting had the bass at 11 and the others somewhere else? (I forgot where.) Totally different from I am reading here. Just curious.

That said, the advice to dial in your own tone is, of course, sound.

Thaks Johntheid. That's a cool solution. But remember that it only works IF you use the special speaker cord adapter he pointed to. That looks like a better solution than converter cables that you'll forget or mix up at a show. I guess $30 is cheaper than a new set of speaker cabs. As long as you ar...

Either way it is 2 ohms.

(I believe there may be special cables that put the cabs into series. BUT I've never used one or even seen one.)

Thanks Andy. I appreciate you sharing your wisdom. I'm not so worried about the speaker cab anymore. I really cranked a Steinberger through it tonight and it sounded just fine. I was very pleased. My old Guilds must just overload it on one frequency. I've encountered that kind of thing before. Amp: ...

Thanks Andy. But I wonder if the protective circuit on any class D amp would kick in less if the signal was compresed?

Anyway, it looks like I'll have to try and contact the folks at Orange central.

Thanks Mr Hun. Very informative. I'd like to try a compressor, though I'm hoping some of the other posters who complained of the cutting out have one and will give it a try before I go buy another one. We mainly play with a good FOH, my stage rig is pretty much a fancy monitor. (Unlike the kids over...

Well, duh... Maybe. Attention Terrorfied, Punchclock, ciffy and Kyle Lash: Do any of you use a compressor? I wonder if a compressor would reduce or eliminate the problem we've encountered? Of course, I sold a beautiful Trace Eliot dual compressor pedal I owned years ago so I don't have one to try. A...

This whole thread is a bit disconcerting. I've noticed something like that now and then as well. It's annoying since I bought it as a backup for my AD200. Now it seems like it is the less reliable one. In fact, I snagged a little Fender Rumble head to back up the back up head. Now aint that crazy? I...

[quote="bclaire"]Does this help? From Orange UK HQ... a cutaway of the SP series cabs....

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for!
