Hmm. Obviously I'm a complete newcomer to Orange-- is there an easy way to tell what products are NOT produced in the UK and therefore NOT available in white?

Is the 112 made in Asia or something?! Guess I could and should go pull the page and look at the specs myself, ha ha...

It is my understanding that the Crush series and Tiny Terror are the non UK products and that all else can be considered a UK made product as far as the white tolex goes. Speaker cabs are made in the US for US sales but can still get white as an option.

This is just from my research and by no means an official answer. The Orange web site had some details in the FAQ I think as well.

The current PPC112 and PPC212OB are both made in China.

Whew... as long as I can still get my closed back 212 in white, I'm happy... my drummer can kiss the white 1x12 goodbye! (Though come on, it would look fantastic!)...

Wonder why they stopped making a 1x12 in UK? My assumption is because its generally matched with the TT, but I think they could produce the 1x12 in the UK charge 10-20% more and it'd still sell. Maybe just me...


Are the new AD5s UK made? Haven't looked yet...

don't think so. pretty sure that if it's less than $600 USD new, it's asian.
