Orange HIGH GAIN AMPS! TUBE vs TRANSISTOR battle!

[@KohleAudioKult]

Which one is your favorite and why? Let me know! 😎

[@UncleBensRice]

Super Crush because it sounds more modern and scooped with the tweaked settings. But with the same settings I preferred the rockerverb.

[@mikeschmidt2816]

Both...depends on what for...but considering 1500 price difference, I'd go for the transistor .

solid state amps forever. My favourite amp of all time is a Peavey Musician 400. I've played Oranges, Marshalls, Fenders, Mesas, Sovteks, 5150s etc.. and no amp and no person has ever given me a convincing argument that I need to play a tube amp.

I had one of those. It took pedals better than anything that I'd ever owned. One day, I decided to sell it to a friend who had his gear stolen during a break-in. After all, I have more expensive tube amps. I instantly regretted it. I told him that if he ever decides to get rid of it, let me know first.

Both sound amazing. I have the Rockerverb 100 mkiii and love it. It’s good to know that a super crush will work as a great and affordable backup. Also, as someone who has been playing for about 25 years I’ve got to stop and say that this is the best time to be a guitarist. Solid state, modeling, and pedal options are better than they have ever been.

[@KohleAudioKult]

I agree! So many great options these days. I’ll never run out of video content, haha! 🤪

[@ThisisDustin]

I got the supercrush because I play crummy punk venues or cover gigs and don’t like taking out my vintage bassmans and with the gain channel I only need a boost pedal. It’s a great option.

[@afterstars]

Super crush sounds good for the money. For me, tubes have a different feel to them in person but just regarding the sound, it’s pretty good. I’ll still never let go of my triple rec. it just pushes air unlike any solid state I’ve ever played and the feeling I get from that hasn’t been replaced with a solid state.

[@miserypath]

Very impressive! The Super Crush was also my favourite right from the start. It just sounds more controlled and therefore tighter.

[@Knight-brolaire]

I'm impressed that they hold up for 7 string tunings. For the price point the super crush seems like a great option.

[@KohleAudioKult]

Agree! Especially since there is no boost.

[@MFKitten]

They sound amazing for low tuned stuff! If you want clarity without losing the clean and big sound, use a Klon style overdrive (wampler, soul food) in front!

[@mbvglider]

In my experience, solid state is better at lower frequencies than tube. My non-scientific guess is probably having to do with the fact that for most solid and tube amps of a similar perceived volume, the solid state has more RMS wattage. While the tube can be driven into pleasing distortion in the mid and high frequencies, that does mean that the solid state has more clean power, and for lower frequencies, they need that energy to move. Consider that most bass amps these days are class D solid state these days. You can't beat clean RMS wattage when it comes to low frequencies.

[@kennyharke366]

I love my Super Crush 100! The amp has made me a believer in transistor technology for amps.

[@TheAbandoners]

I'd have the Orange solid state series over any tube amp now. Owned and gigged many different tube amps (vintage suitcase to large stacks) and they are superb, but the delicacy, tube changing and potential for failure isn't worth it. The Crush series are so good now, that it isn't worth the extra hassle.

[@albertplaysguitar]

I gig with a crush 35rt, mainly as a pedal platform. Solid state can get the job done with some tweaking, and it's pretty consistent. Orange has done great with the crush series.

[@sid35gb]

The Super Crush has the same circuit inside as the rockerverb but with Jfet instead of tubes hence very similar in sound. I love the super crush.

[@ZacharyMoonshine]

For those that like the sludgier sound, I would be curious to see how close you can get the super crush to the other by using an eq in the effects loop and boost the lows.

Great video comparison, and you were unbiased on your opinion in that you didnt just automatically favor the tube amp like alot of Pro's do, and us non proffesional, small time club giggers, appreciate that because most of us cant afford 2 thousand dollar amps, but then again, Orange,,in my opinion are Above the rest as far as solid State amps..you rock man..

[@RyvenProductions]

The Crush sounds great, but I would still go for the Rockerverb. That amp's low end is where it shines. The Rockerverb has never really been a super tight beast. It sits right at home in sludge if that makes sense. I think of bands like High on Fire when I hear a Rockerverb 100.

[@mountainpeakcloud8442]

I agree that the low mids is where the Rockerverb shines. Ironically, Soldanos are used on High on Fire as opposed to Orange.

the orange amps are clearly made for singing single notes that doom, stoner, southern, and sludge heads crave for. But it's pretty cool to hear it can also do the tight metal stuff albeit you gotta need an overdrive for that hyper modern djenty djent stuff.

[@ericv7720]

The solid state seems tighter and more gain-y, but with less "fatness" to the mids, which is what I expected. That's why so many chuggers like to stick overdrives in front of their tube amps, to basically sound more "solid state."

[@treewisemenllc7281]

Well they both need a boost, an some more gain in my opinion. But I was shocked to find that I preferred the solid state over the tube at first!

I could tell straight away that it was No. 2 by the compression characteristics as it reminded me of certain high gain guitar pedals. However using JFETs in the gain stage was a cool move, it definitely has the Rockerverb character though but yes it's slightly tighter.

[@mrcoatsworth429]

All transistor amps sound tighter which is more ideal if you want to cut through a mix right.

[@mountainpeakcloud8442]

Depends on the mix, and depends on the frequencies. A tube amp will cut through the mix just fine if the frequencies are dialed to cut. The tightness is just more of a tonal preference depending on the type of music you're playing... but it's not difficult to add tightness to a slightly looser tube amp with a boost.

[@Bcwilderness]

That's funny. When you started the first Tone, I was like: "that's a transistor". Then you played the second one and I was like: "They (almost) sound the same." Not a fan of the sound of this amp. But they nailed the transistor version to sound like the tube variant. Sticking to my Engl Savage 60 and Laney Ironheart though.

I'm definitely impressed with "today's" solid state tones; back in the 80's, I hated that nasty sizzle "saturation". It's still there, a little bit (I guessed tone 2 was the solid state), but it sure can be tamed nowadays.

[@lolaa2200]

The early version of ss amps where just using schematics of tube amps but replacing each triod with a bjt transistor (e.g. : fender ss 80's silverface). No surprise that sucks. But if a competent EE design a solid state amp from scratch no wonder he can totally achieve same tone as tube amps and in many way outperform it. Big company like fender and Marshall just did not bother to hire competent EE and/or leave them freedom to do the right thing. Add to that very often they where sold paired with shitty speakers and no wonder ss amps got bad rep.

[@smailee716]

I used to do a hybrid of a tube amp at home, and a ss for gigging until I sold the tube amp. Not gonna lie, I sold the amp for financial reasons, but I love the SS (I use a quilter 100w head), it’s hard to beat as a pedal platform! For most purposes in the 21st century, I think the crush is more than enough firepower. It won’t have the squishy tube compression, but it’s nothing a bit of practice can’t fix. For a home/studio rig I can see people getting something fancier, but that’s another story.

[@wethriveIn425]

It gets “middy harsh” when it gets too loud.

[@macleanrocks]

I really enjoyed this latest video on the Supercrush! Thanks a lot for that! I recently bought the amp as a "combo" and I'm pretty excited about it. I'm even considering buying this amp as a "head".... We don't do "metal" but we are at home in rock/hard rock. After several recordings in the rehearsal room, as a guitarist you have to frustratedly realise that your fellow musicians can't hear the difference between "Tube and Solid State". So why carry heavy loads and buy expensive tubes?

[@brandenstapleton9641]

I was recently looking into getting an orange amp for the purposes of hardcore/deathcore because I absolutely love the sounds they put out, but I couldn't for the life of me find an example that was in that realm, everything was doom metal or older classic metal/rock.

[@matthew_thefallen]

The low end and the brightness of the amps has nothing to do with transistor or tubes. If you take another tube amp like the Dark terror 15w and a rockverb 50, you'll hear a difference in how the amplifiers processes the sound. At least, this is my experience by testing them out. 😅 We have a wrong perception of solid states by listening to smaller cab amps for studio or home use like 15w starter cheap amps, but actually many solid states with bigger cabs are proper amps that can be used with bands. It depends on the circuits of the amp :)
