uh oh...
this thread is going to be one that goes on for ages isn't it

also much  :evil: . Just as I felt all the options were either unreasonably priced, or not good enough, a 4 EL84 amp suddenly appears.

TwinFan.... well you can't tell us about the rumour and not confirm sources   :o

Alright Brow, the new AD30 heads are two channel  ;)

My source was second hand.  First hand info came from someone at Orange.  I reckon it's pretty reliable  ;)

I'll let ya have that 1 then ;)

I personally don't see the point in a 30w TT myself. You can pickup single channel 30w AD30s like mine for about £300 - £400.

Depends what you need in an amp I s'ppose :)

When I saw the thread title I thought bugger, they're changing it already and I haven't even got mine yet!  :(

But it's a different amp, cool.


Ha!  My thoughts exactly when I read the thread title.  I just forked over $150 to the local Orange dealer to put my name next to one of the new Tiny Terrors when they arrive (I hope) in early December.

I would have been pissed off the learn that there was a Tiny Terror "Plus" with an effects loop or line out or something!  But Orange isn't that dumb; they've got a great thing going with the TT *JUST AS IT IS*, so if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

I've been playing with a 2 channel AD30 at rehearsals recently. It's like 2 big tiny terrors stapled together. Both channels seem to be closely voiced, and i like it. A good alternative to my TT at home, which after a year i still love to bits. It quenches any amp GAS instantly with it's little orange light, 15 watts and godawesome tone.

hmm, another 30w 4x EL84 amp from Orange - does the world need that? (or even Orange themselves for that matter).

If it was the same amp as the TT but with a 30w output stage, it could be quite cool BUT I think it'd need to have some extra bells and whistles to make it worthwhile (more gain, tonestack, effects loop).

I can't fathom Orange's thinking on this one unless their customer feedback shows demand for a louder TT.  I'm not familiar enough with Orange amps to know how the TT sounds compared to the classic Orange amps in terms of tone.

All that said though, the louder amps generally have more to them in terms of circuit design - there is something to be said for a bare-bones preamp into a louder output stage (like what people have done with the 5E3 Tweed Deluxe with the 4x 6V6 output stage)
