The Orange Amps AD 140 TC (twin channel) is a dual channel guitar amplifier head.<span> </span>The amp has a single ¼ inch input in the front for your instrument and a ¼ inch speaker output to send this to a cabinet.<span> </span>It also comes with a foot pedal so you can select between the two different channels.<span> </span>Not much to the amp beyond this…
UTILIZATION
<p class="MsoNormal">The make up of the Orange Amps AD 140 TC is pretty simple, but at the same time it definitely offers up a lot of versatility and options.<span> </span>Having two channels is a huge plus, as in tandem with the pedal you can set two distinct sounds and change between them with a push of the button.<span> </span>Each channel has pretty standard parameters, including for master volume, treble, middle, bass, and gain.<span> </span>The two channels are pretty much exactly the same.<span> </span>On the face of the amp there are also switches for power, stand by, and to choose between channels one and two.<span> </span>
SOUNDS
<p class="MsoNormal">If you’ve ever used an Orange amp, you’ve probably got a pretty good idea of what this amp is all about, as it has the same killer tone found on all Orange amps.<span> </span>Both in terms of a clean tone and distortion, this amp is absolutely awesome.<span> </span>I’ve used the amp for recording with a Fender Strat and an Orange 4 x 12 speaker cabinet.<span> </span>I can’t say a bad thing about the way this amp sounds, as the clean sound is crystal clear and the distortion is some of the best of its kind…All with room for tweaking to your liking.
OVERALL OPINION
If you have your heart set on an Orange amp, which many guitarists these days do, there are all sorts of great models to choose from.<span> </span>I’d encourage those interested to head down to your local Orange Amps dealer and try them all out, as they all have something to bring to the table.<span> </span>It’s really just about what will work best for the sound you’re going for and what will fit into your price range.<span> </span>Having said all this, don’t make a choice until you try out the AD 140 TC, as it is as good as any of them!
