Orange Dual Dark 100 White Limited Edition

White, but still Dark
Our highest gain amplifier is back for a limited time only in white tolex finish! The same 2 channels of 100% analogue tube versatility with a slight tweak to Channel A, bringing a dash of the OR100 flavour and feel. Offering independent gain and master controls on each channel means you can go from clean to death at the push of a button.

Channel A has the familiar powerful 3 band EQ to allow you to dial up any tone from cleans/classic rock all the way through to limb-dismembering metal. Channel B will take you back in time to the classic ground shaking Thunderverb layout so you can go from scooped to pronounced mids and mellow highs using just one control, true simplicity.

If you like your gain to come from the power tubes you have the option to switch down from 100w to 70w, 50w or 30w. Take it down lower still with the footswitchable attenuator or set the attenuator for rhythm volume and turn it off for a lead boost!

KEY FEATURES:

TWO MASTER VOLUME CHANNELS WITH FOUR STAGES OF HIGH GAIN
From sparkling cleans to overdrive to aggressive distortion. Both channels deliver the versatility demanded by the best guitarists

FOOTSWITCHABLE GLOBAL ATTENUATOR
Output stage saturation at ‘conversation volumes’. The Attenuator circuit is located after the master volume controls and determines when and how the amp distorts after the preamp stage. This means the overall volume level can be reduced, whilst keeping control over the amp’s output clipping characteristics. Unlike a loadbox, our design ensures the all-important relationship between the output transformer and the speaker remains intact, so even at very low volumes the amp remains springy and responsive. Turning the Attenuator control clockwise reduces the overall output level (i.e. increases the attenuation), which can be remotely defeated via a footswitch for a volume boost on either channel for lead lines.

SWITCHABLE OUTPUT POWER
Switching the amp’s output power allows for more control over the headroom and breakup from the output valves. Reduce the output for greater output valve clipping and saturation at lower volume levels. The Dual Dark 100 can be switched between 100, 70, 50 and 30 Watts

ENGINEERED TO BE PLAYED
At Orange, we expect our amps to work for a living. For the best possible tone and durability, the Dual Dark 100 uses 8 section output transformers. The chassis-mounted switchgear is secured to a welded steel enclosure and housed in a sturdy 18mm plywood cabinet.

VALVE BUFFERED FX LOOP
For the purist who loves their pedals, our highly transparent effects loop is buffered by a single 12AT7/Ecc81, ensuring an all-valve signal path from input to output to take full advantage of the masses of gain available when using time-based effects.

100% Valve
You won’t find any op-amps in the Dual Dark 100.
