I have to say, i've never heard of anyone using an Altec Lansing speaker with a guitar amp. Just done a little reading up, it seems like the 417 8H was well-regarded. But it might be a bit niche... not sure anyone will have used one with the AD30. Well then i'll be the one trying it and i'll report...

Hey guys, I will be getting very soon a nice vintage Altec Lansing 417 8H, 200 watt speaker. I will be putting it in a 1x12 cab to use with my AD30 single channel. Just wanted to know if anyone here was familiar with these speakers, and if you tried them with any Orange amps ? I know a lot of guys l...

My favorite tone I ever got out of my AD30 through a single 12" speaker was through a Weber 30w AlNico Blue Dog. I usually run it through both the Blue Dog and a G12H-30 though. In my sig I actually recorded a bunch of single speakers and combinations including the Blue Dog, G12H-30 and the Vox Neo...

I used a pair of Celestion Century Vintage speakers with mine, and one would be fine. A cheaper version would be the Celestion Hot 100 - sounds good too.

Thanks, i'll look at the Century Vintage, i didn't know about them.

Hey guys, I've been using my single channel AD30 and loving it with an old 4x12 cab. I was told the speakers are re-branded V30, but not certain on this. Anyway i really like the tone i'm getting but i'm looking to get a simple 1x12 for small club gigging. What speakers would be a good fit? The WGS ...

Wow, the AD30 with that Tele sounds amazing! Great rhythm tone and i loved the track overall as well.
Good job!

I know the guy who was one of the techs for JPJ at the show and he said that despite the large line up of amps, Page did the whole thing playing through a single AD30. I thinks that's rather cool. That is so cool !! Not just because it is my main amp and i really enjoy it, but because i think that ...

Many amps have switching on the input jacks so that when you plug into the 'high input' the 'low input' also becomes a high input. If this is the case withe AD30 then the A/B switch will have no effect. I don't have a schematic for the AD30 so I can't give you the correct answer. Assuming you haven...

Very Nice!

The OR50, is/would be the next Orange on my list...

Hey guys, So i have a AD30 that i really like. I was thinking about trying a A/B pedal with it to switch between the high and low input. Can that be done ? I know you probably cab'y use both together but can you switch? The difference in gain between the high and low is not that big but it could be ...

Hey guilleonline, Congrats on the AD30, I've got an AD30 single channel for about a month and it is a great amp. I am still playing around with the different settings that i would be using live. Since mine is a single channel i think that the way i'll run it is right on the verge of breakup, i can g...

I'll have to ask him. I think he said he got a bunch of transistors recently that would allow him to do so... I don't know what you'd call this pedal since technically, Orange never actually made one! Please keep us inform, as i would also be very interested in having one... we could do a mini grou...

I'm very interested in knowing about it too.

Should be interesting to see what's inside. Sometime in 2002 they moved production from the Trace Elliot factory to a new facility. Your serial number format suggests it was made in the new place so it probably won't have the Trace inspection sticker.[/quote] Thanks for the info! I'll look inside to...

Hey guys, I've posted in the community forum but I thought it should be asked here. My newly acquired Orange AD30 single channel was believed to be a 1997, but then I learned they started making them in late 1998, so to clarity, here is the serial number in the back: AD30H-1070-10-02 As others have ...
