OMEC Digital Programmable Amp, the first ever of its kind!
EDITED: Just uploaded the scans of the actual catalog I bought for the OMEC from ebay - much clearer than the ones I had before...

Ha ha ha! It's not due to arrive until Friday, and it's guaranteed not to work!

Re: OMEC 1975 | Catalog and schematics
Well... I saw those back then and contacted the seller. Apparently they were bought when Orange liquidated a bunch of things in the late 70's when they shut down. They weren't complete amps- one might have worked but the other not. They were "unsold" because Orange UK bought them! Orange still has mine...mr_william wrote:i was browsing the picture thread, and noticed the omec digital amp... trying to find out more, i googled it.

... and Orange still has it. I'm trading it to them for their collection as they don't have one. Just sent Cliff my catalog as well...

There's a couple of clips on Orange's Instagram stories (24 hours) that show the OMEC being turned on (pop!) and someone playing through it!
