Thunderpaws Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Confused. Y'know the knuckled test where you tap the side of the cab and a good one will give you a quickly absorbed thud and a bad one will resonate, well, in that link there Orange say they have a pleasingly reverberating enclosure. Does this make it an inherently poor cab design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where electronics are concerned Orange seems to have things well sussed, but where speakers are concerned, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]Could be. A marketeer with no engineering expertise might think that a resonant cabinet was a good thing. As to whether the cab is resonant or actually inert, as it should be, one can only speculate. The reference to a resonant cabinet isn't the only market speak faux pas.[i] 'Orange signature skid runners to acoustically bond the cabinet to the stage and improve bass response' [/i]describes a phenomena which does not exist.

41.2Hz Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 As an aside, the Artist endorsements on the website caught my eye. I saw Fleetwood Mac at the NEC in July - John McVie's 4 x OTB1000 rack looked and sounded majestic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
