Members agentcooper2001 Posted December 4, 2005 Members Share Posted December 4, 2005 I'm considering picking up a Orange AD-30r 2x12 combo. For those of you who use this amp, what do you think of it? Any annoying traits or problems with it? Do you prefer the AD-30 or the twin channel model? How are the speakers in it?

Members telepaul Posted December 4, 2005 Members Share Posted December 4, 2005 Wow. Your already over the matchless? I know you've been through a few boutique amps; have you ever owned a Reeves or a Carr? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agentcooper2001 Posted December 4, 2005 Author Members Share Posted December 4, 2005 well, not necessarily over the Matchless. I really like it, but I wouldn't mind having a less expensive 2x12 amp right now and getting some extra cash. I'm basically only into EL84 amps and I'm not sure if Reeves makes any of those right now. I've never been interested in Carr amps for some reason. I'm also looking at the Bogner Metropolis 2x12 30 watt amp. Which Reeves amp are you getting? The Custom 30? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members telepaul Posted December 4, 2005 Members Share Posted December 4, 2005 Yeah I really love the set up of the custom 30. It has exactly the features I want on an amp. The problem is that though the clips sound tremendous there...well....ya know....just clips. I've actually played through a Rambler and it's basically the best Deluxe Reverb ever. So I'm leaning towards the Reeves but the fact I've played the Rambler and love it and am depending on clips of the reeves is bothering me....The Rambler has trem but no boost. And the od on the reeves sounds fantastic. I posed the question on cork sniffer central (tgp) since someone over there is likely to have played both.... The Carr slant 6 is the best 2x12 combo with channel switching I've ever played. It's to much though...The Reeves is just right. I also wonder about "do i really need a friggin 2 grand 1x12 combo?" But I think by the time I sell a bunch of stuff it won't be costing me much....It'll be like a big trade. I'm about $500 there; I still haven't even posted everything I'm going to sell; still weeding stuff out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
