Orange Tiny Terror HandWired edition?

It would be interesting to hear it side by side to a standard tiny terror to justify the extra cost.

Would be interesting to hear that actually. Hopefully Chappers will oblige!

I think i'll stick with my standard TT though, was playing my Les Paul through it earlier, had forgotten how good it sounded!

[Gizmo]

Already sent him a message on youtube earlier to ask exactly that.

Is the boutique version an offical model or just a UK builder trying to show the full potential of the amp?

I will tell you something so listen up here. Trannys make a huge tone difference. I dont know if I will be able to record anything but I am switching out my TT Transformers for a Mercury Magnetics set, and let me tell you the tt that I heard with the (Holy Terror Mercury Magnetics Transformers) sounded awesome better than standard. Improved everything. I am sure that mine will have the same result. Anyway I would get the Dual Terror if anyone out there is interested, and if you want to kick a little more quality into the mix upgrade the transformers. As far as the way they are built and where. My TTs electronics impressed my tech. Its not like these things are being built by underpaid monkeys. Probably could pay the guys a little more but Orange told me they have good Quality Control over there.
Anyway The Dual Looks stunning. I will do my best to get one if I come across one.

The output transformer (should!) be the most expensive component in an amplifier. Not only does it have a significant effect on the quality of the tone of an amp, but also the reliability.

The components used in a decent transformer cost more than those in a pickup, and transformers are far  complicated to wind than pickups, so I find it quite odd that  so many people seem to object to paying more money for amplifiers, whereas they are prepared to pay for expensive pickups.

Strange nobody has noticed its not called a hand wired TT, its a Hard wired edition

This is exactly what I heard from a trusted amp tech I was talking to a few months back when I asked about tweaking my amp. It wasn't our friend from jpf amps btw but the message was the same.

Just realised Orange have also released a new 2x12 cab.

Open backed, vintage 30 speakers and more compact than the normal 2x12.

That's great, releasing an open-backed cab and only providing front shots in the picture gallery  :shock:

Think it's more intended as a combo extension cabinet than anything else
