A hybrid of both solid state amp technology and traditional valve pre amp amplification, the Micro Terror features a power output of 20 watts. Highly portable and compact, this mini tube amp is a true Orange classic, with vitnage British character from clean crunch to massive overdrive tones.

Orange Micro Terror Amp Review - Premier Guitar Orange Micro Terror Amp Review - Premier Guitar

The Micro Terror features one preamp tube (12AX7) and a 20w Solid State output section. This hybrid combination of tube and transistor allows the Micro Terror to get the warmth and complexity of tube tube tone but with the weight reduction benefit of solid state technology. So you get the portability of orange's Crush range of solid states but with a tone closer to the awesome tube tone of the Tiny Terror. The first thing to note about these amps is obviously their size. They are significantly smaller than a loaf of bread, and look amusingly small on top of a 2x12 cabinet. Despite its incredibly compact size, this is an amp that's most at home on stage or in a soundproof studio. It just sounds better with the volume working harder and the headphone output is a little harsh for sustained solo practice sessions. Hot on the heels of such additions to the range as the none-more-metal Dark Terror and the Terror Bass heads comes a pair of new models: the Signature #4 Jim Root unit and Orange's smallest head yet, the impossibly cute Micro Terror. Orange Amplification's Micro Terror is their smallest Terror ever! Building on the winning recipe of the rest of the popular Terror series, the Micro Terror retains the beautiful unpretentious design, delivering a classic Orange sound way bigger than it looks, with a size and weight making it extremely portable.This scaled down cab's 8" speaker delivers a punchy tone and sound that has to be heard to be believed. Like all Orange speaker cabs it is built to last using extremely rugged construction and manufacturing techniques and stands out from the crowd with Orange's legendary basket weave Tolex grill cloth, Orange crest and badge. Great amp, sounds amazing, just a shame it’s not brand new, as advertised, looks slightly ex demo, otherwise it would be 5 stars. As I mentioned at the beginning, there are a few products which have given me a 'wow factor' over the years and this is quite high on that list.

Please note: This product does not come with a speaker cable. Please see the related items section for an appropriate cable. SpecificationI modified my Fender Mustang 1 amp so that I could connect its speaker to the PPC108 cab and now the amp sounds even better! The sounds seems more rounded and complete somehow, so I recommend running it with two 8'' speakers if you can to get the perfect Orange sound.

Since the amps have returned with the original color scheme, they are rightly claiming their niche in the highly competitive amplifier market. Just as before, when countless sizes used these amps, Orange Amplifier builds distinctive sound for people who know exactly what they want. Ignore the headphone output, it never sounds good on any orange amps I've tried. Sounds shrill and thin when driven. If you're buying it for headphone practice, don't bother. I'd rather recommend using either Vox AmPlug series or a loadbox with custom IRs for silent practice. Their cab sim tech needs some work. So can an amplifier this physically small really deliver the kind of juicy crunch upon which Orange built its reputation? The Orange Micro Terror houses a single 12AX7 pre-amp tube, powering 20 watts RMS of solid-state output. The Micro Terror is powered via a 15-volt DC supplier and features a handy auxiliary input for MP3 player, CD player etc and can be plugged into to any cabinet with 4-ohm or greater handing - it'll even a power a 4 x 12 cabinet... Seriously! With a high tensile steel case is it built to the same rugged specifications as the other members of the Terror family and is incredibly compact and highly portable. This is a true Orange Amp classic, with masses of vintage British character, clean crunch and full-on overdrive sounds.More than capable of powering our largest speaker cabinet, the PPC412 the Micro Terror is compatible with any cab with an impedance of 8 Ohms or greater. AUXILIARY INPUT The tone control is very basic but extreme from ear splitting sharpness to sounding like it is under a dozen pillows. I have combined this with an Orange Two Stroke to drive the front end a bit harder and have a much wider control of the tone shaping and I am in heaven. Inspired by the Tiny Terror, our game-changing ‘lunchbox’ amplifier, the diminutive Micro Terror is the original micro amp. SINGLE ECC83 (12AX7) PREAMP VALVE
