My Orange doesn't make any sound when i turn it on. I plugged into my other amp and everything works great, but the Orange must be broken.

 

Is it the tubes? I've had this amp for a few years and I don't think its had the tubes replaced.

 

What else can I troubleshoot?

No idea. Is it the tubes? That's what I'd check next. Which Orange is it?

Fuse first, then tubes. Does it have an effects send/recv? Plug into the effects recv and see if you get any sound - if yes, either a preamp tube is blown, or something is wrong in the preamp, if no, power tubes are probably blown.

These days there are multiple fuses in many amps (they are designed to protect the various secondaries on the power transformer).

But if it lights up and there is *no* sound. I would guess your speaker cable is plugged in right.
