MGR/Billy « Orange CR6S Stereo Micro Crush »
Published on 05/20/11 at 15:00Hey this is a review for the new CR6S Stereo Micro Crush Pix by Orange amplifiers. It is a lean, mean, not green, but orange rather, fighting machine.
I write a guitar blog and was offered the amp by Orange to check out. Have someone mail you an amp to crank up for a few days? Certainly! Brand new these are $89.

It's compact. It is 6 watts of power into 2 4 inch speakers. It has a built in tuner, strap buttons on the side and an aux input with adjustable volume knob to allow you to rock out to your favorite tunes. It also has a headphone jack and a line out.
Since it is a tiny, tiny amp the box or speakers really cannot product a ton of power. The amp really shines as a solo go anywhere practice amp or it is also a ton of fun to mic up.
There is a power supply available but of course that is sold separately. That is sort of a bummer.
The amp is covered in the classic orange tolex and tan basket weave grill cloth that Orange amplifiers are known for. It's lightweight, probably no more than 4 pounds. It can be powered by 2 nine volt batteries or a separate 18 volt power supply.
Bottom line is this amp if fun. Don't expect to rip down walls, but it makes a great practice tool.
