Orange 2x12 or 4x12 comp c 1960A

Digibear · 14th April 2008, 01:04 PM

So I'm thinking about Orange cabs. I have a Marshall 1960A 4x12 c Celestion G12T75s. How different will the Orange be? Should I get the 2x12 or the 4x12?

The Orange will probably be a night-and-day change from your Marshall. The Orange 4x12 is bassier and has a much smoother (in my opinion dark by comparison) high end than the Marshall.

I prefer the 4x12 Orange as I've found their smaller cabs to sound kind of boxy at times.

I'll have to concur with Cory, while the Marshall isn't bad the Orange is a definite step up. Much more pronounced low end and smoother top end. Some of that has to do with the difference in speakers as well. Your 1960 will sound much different with some V30's thrown in there although still wouldn't have quite the low end of the Orange cab.
