Orange preamp listings?

Post by Dexter211275 » Sat Jan 20, 2018 4:02 am

Is there anywhere to find out which Orange amps are based off which preamps? Seems most the newer models have or are based off the RV preamp. Which of the current amps are not? Thanks

Dual Terror, AD series, Thunderverb, OR50, Rocker series. All unique to themselves and not really the same as the Rockerverb preamp.Only way to know is a schematic or seeing the amp circuit. Only schematic I haven't seen of those I mentioned is the OR50, but I have an idea what it is.

Thanks, so much misinformation around. Ive heard the Rocker 30 is based on the RV preamp with just one less gain stage and Ive also heard the DT is the same preamp as the RV. Also heard the TH30/100 is based off the Thunderverbs?

Nah, the Rocker 30 and Rockerverb sound bery different. Them sharing part of the same name is misleading.

The TH series are bases of the Rockerverb, but with the shaoe EQ found on the TV series.

DT as in Dual Terror, a is based of the Tiny Terror, the Dark Terror is a mini TH without the clean channel, so seemingly based on the RV with the shape control.

They all share similarities in voicing, but thats what makes them Orange.

Absolutely. I hear way more similarities than differences. It's in their DNA.
