Orange AD 140 Twin Channel Head
Power: 140 watts
Rglages channels:
Channel A: Clear / Satur
Channel B: Clear / Satur
Footswitch Function: Channel A or Channel B
Lamps Pramp: 4 X 12AX7
Lamp Power: 4 X EL34
Channel A Controls: Gain / Volume / Bass / Middle / Treble
Channel B Controls: Gain / Volume / Bass / Middle / Treble
Speakers Output: 2 X 8 ohm and 1 X 16 ohm
Heads all lamps.
The two switches on the front panel turn the head and used to bypass
A share has no intgre reverb, FX loop not strictly speaking just one external output titled SLAVE (I have yet to test)
UTILIZATION
I think we can not do the simplest level configuration.
Each knob Ragit prcisment for trebble, middle and bass, then to vary the saturation of the amp just to play on the Gain and Volume.
Easily obtained a good sound Manir gnral, although for an optimal grain, you will need to push the head a little because it is a 140watt!
I have no manual but there is not REALLY need.

The manual is in English, but it is enough.
SOUNDS
I play in a rock / instrumental / progressive, and it is everything.
I may as well have an extremely crisp and clear sound, or sound almost too saturated everything is played with Gain and Volume.
However it is important to say that Channel A is in its design built to match the sounds Manir clear up crunch (but big big crunch if the gain is 10), while Channel B should more than crunches and vritables saturations.
All remaining extremely dynamic, and the volume goes up, the more the dynamics of the amplifier is required.
I play it with a Gibson ES 333, an Ibanez AXS32, a Les Paul Custom and a Stratocaster 71. They possdent all their peculiarities, and therefore we must find the optimal sound for each.
It is possible to have a sound not too saturated and trs dynamics especially on channel B, which gives more power and its phnomnal, which is a pretty good ass amp british !
OVERALL OPINION
It's been ending for a year I use it, but I rvais an Orange amp for a long time.
The amp is gnial for its simplicity and power, but especially for the grain that possde. BMOL small for me, there is no reverb intgre (too bad when you see the quality of their other sries reverb), but it's not really in the spirit of the amp.
This is an amp I think extremely hard to find nine of Paris, especially if one does not have 2000 euros, so to get an ide of the Orange, I spent a few months to try the AD30, the Rockerverb 100, Rockerverb 50 combo, the Rocker 30 and even the Tiny Terror, knowing the sound dj marshall, Fender and Hughes, I was looking for something that suited me more for the music that I could résumé as something couillu, but powerful prcis English.
The report price is plutt good quality, having found nine in 1200, I have not really complain, and I would do this choice without a doubt!
