Is there something wrong with my Orange Tiny Terror?? (Clip included)

how long had the amp been on before this recording? it sounds like the preamp tube is being starved, or not warmed up completely. also, does it happen on half power and full power?

Hey, thanks for the listen and the response. The amp was probably only on for about 10 minutes. That said, it seems to happen when the amp has been on for a while.

This was recorded at full power, 15W, but I haven't had this problem at 7W.

interesting, sounds like it needs a look over by a tech. it may be as simple as bad solder connection, or there may be something faulty with a component. i know it's a floor model, but you might check if the warranty is good, or if you might be able to exchange it at the music store. in the mean time, just use it in the other power setting. sorry i can't be more help.

Thanks for your advice. I'm within my 30-day policy so I'm sure I can work something out. thumbsup
