The Orange CR120C is part of the high power Crush range that heralds a dawn for Orange Amplifiers. These mark Orange's first foray into the world of high power, solid-state amplifiers. The reason it has taken so long' We have yet to be happy with the sound, that is, until now. Orange have spent years researching, developing and testing a solid-state amplifier which they are truly proud of. The Orange design team felt it was important to keep these amplifiers simple and not bombard the player with hundreds of on board features. The result is an analog, solid-state, two channel (dirty and clean) amplifier based on the prestigious Rockerverb range. The dirty channel uses a circuit based on four stages of gain and a three band EQ which provide the player with a wide pallet of overdriven and distorted sounds. The clean channel is based on a two stage, two band EQ design, that gives the player a clean but warm sound which when cranked begins to break up, just like a Rockerverb!

Although simplistic in its design, Orange has also given the amplifiers a transparent effects loop, allowing you to plug in your favorite pedals to open the amplifier up to a wide variety of situations and playing styles. Finally, the amplifier contains an inbuilt digital reverb, providing the player with a natural sounding spring, hall or plate reverb.

Like with all Orange amplifiers, the look had to be right, the Crush exhibit the same features as their valve based brothers which includes Orange basket-weave… read more Tolex, woven speaker grille, beading, hieroglyphs and of course the Orange signature picture frame edging.

The Crush CR120C has been designed to look and sound the part, be it in a rehearsal, living room or on the stage. read less
