From input to output, the Super Crush 100 uses high-quality analogue circuitry to deliver all the immediacy, definition and character that you would expect from any of Orange's top-of-the-range valve amps. It's solid state done right.


Watch as Ty Tabor demos the Super Crush 100 in this video from Orange:

High Gain, High Versatility

Two completely independent, all-analogue preamp channels give you instant access to a whole spectrum of warm, valve-like tones. From high-headroom clean to high-gain metal, every sound you could ever need is dialed in with ease, thanks to a versatile circuit and intuitively simple control layout.

The Dirty Channel boasts four cascading stages of proper Orange gain, along with a passive 3-band EQ. Just like its all-valve stablemates, the Super Crush 100's Dirty Channel can hammer out punishing heavy tones and also clean right up, whether you're riding the guitar volume knob or the amp's wide-ranging gain control.

The Clean Channel is a bright, vintage-flavoured, two-stage design. There's plenty of headroom, keeping your clean tones shimmering and clear at any level, with the option of cranking the volume up into fat, bluesy crunch.

100 Watts of Solid State Mojo

Solid state doesn't have to be lifeless. Orange has proven that before with the Crush Pro range, and they're proving it all over again. The Super Crush 100 uses the tried and tested 100 Watt Class A/B power amp from Orange's Pedal Baby 100 to deliver all the dynamics, presence and… read more feel of a big valve amp. Filling big stages is not a problem, thanks to massive headroom, fantastic articulation, and relentless punch.

Direct and To-The-Point

The Super Crush 100 features a balanced XLR output with Orange's CabSim speaker emulation technology. Mimicking the sound of a 212 cab, this no-nonsense, all-analogue filter gives you instant access to a great D.I. guitar tone, straight into the P.A. or recording interface. The Cab Back switch selects between the sound of an open or closed back cab, homing in on your perfect direct sound quicker than you can say "I don't need a mic."

Built-In Reverb and Fully-Buffered FX Loop

An on-board digital reverb processor provides a lush, spring reverb ambience, adding a deep and shimmering finishing touch to your sound. Prefer your own pedals? The fully buffered, ultra-transparent, series FX Loop takes care of all your effects needs, accommodating even the most outlandish signal chains without ever compromising your carefully crafted tone.

Run one of these cab configurations with the Super Crush 100 head:

- One 16 ohm cab connected to the one of the speaker outputs.
- Two 16 ohm cabs connected to both speaker outputs, or daisy-chained together from one of the speaker outputs.
- One 8 ohm cab connected to one of the speaker outputs.
- NOTE: It's better to not daisy-chain, in case the first cable or cab in the chain were to fail during a performance; then you'd lose all your sound. Running a separate cable to each cab ensures at least one cab will still be going if a speaker cable or cab fails during a performance.
