"I didn't buy this amp for clean sounds, and you probably won't either. This amp can easily do everything from light grit to saturated metal, without pedals. I probably wouldn't pick this as my only amp, but there's certainly a place for it in a collection. People familiar with the Orange sound should be aware this amp lacks the fluid smooth high notes of the Rockerverb and the similarly smooth clean channel. Also, there is chatter about the speaker needing a swap on this amp, with which I disagree. I went as far as plugging one of my main amps into the internal speaker of this combo and it sounds full and clear, and I have a selection of speakers from Eminence, Celestion, and WGS for comparison. I recommend just using the extension speaker jack with your favorite 1x12, but this combo doesn't require it as it has a great, unique, and exciting sound."

"I'm happy with this purchase, after a lot of thinking about what would be my amp upgrade I decided to buy this one and I don't regret at all. It's versatile, and when you crank it up this thing has a badass edge, this is classic Rock sounds. The best feature is that it allows you to play indoor with the "half" output setting and still get a good sound out of it. It's really good in small gigs, you're not going to get drowned in the mix. Buy it, it's worth of every dollar you pay for."

"Really cranks - loud and really puts out some gain. I usually play it at home on volume 2 with the gain at 12 o’clock and that’s plenty. 15 watts is more than you’d think. Nice sound, including on clean channel. Has the ability to dial back wattage to 7, 1 and .5 to drive the amp at low volume.

More expensive (and louder) than your higher-watt solid-state amps but nothing beats that driven analog tube sound!"
