The best bedroom amp ever! New 4x12 Cabinet Day! This is what I drove up to palmy in order to collect yesterday. Manage to avoid catching any "STD"s from Unique's relations.
An Orange PPC412. Vintage 30 speakers. "Used" condition. Speakers are well broken in thankfully...new V30s are HARSH.
I have tried it out in the bedroom (mancave) I'm very happy with it. Really punchy deep lows (with the bass on my amp set to 1oclock), no mush, smoother highs than my 2x12, mids still warm and up front though. A real rock cab. Palm mutes chug really nicely and everything just sounds HUGE. I was super impressed by how nice it sounded with cleans and a touch of reverb though. Need to build a dolly trolley for it next weekend though cos it weighs 50 fucking kgs.
Excuse my crappy photography skills.
And cos I own a 2x12 as well...for shits and giggles...
It must be said I don't ever intend to use the 4x12 and 2x12 together...but it looks damn cool (and like im compensating for something, which im not...I rock out with my cock out all the time ). I would like to see the soundmans face at somewhere like medusa when if I dragged both in...even then just connect one of them and have the other purely for looks
I did try them together last night. The 2x12 gets more power and all you can hear is the treble coming on your face (ib;jb). The magic of the 4x12 gets lost underneath it. Would like to try it outside of the bedroom though and really crank and stand further away it to see if there's a difference.
NCD! Bedroom amp.

Haha. Actually the man cave is a single bedroom size which is why its funny that it has a 3/4 stack in it...my 5w radiotone combo sitting next to it and it seems almost as loud though :pDaza152 wrote: ..and that is an amazing amp you have there must have a huge man cave....do we have thread for show us your man cave??
