Hopefully you'll see my Hexavalve for sale before too long. Think I'm done carrying tube heads.

I only briefly checked out the Orange and I had a tough time keeping it clean. Seemed like a hot bass liked to push it into overdrive fairly easily, but depends on the tone you're going for.
I can say that Monique through the ML112 is extremely sick sounding. The tube sweetness with a bit of edge through the mid driver is pretty killer. And oddly enough, the combination of Rob Allen Deep 4 + Monique + ML112 is flat out perfect. I thought it would end up as being too much low end but the combination just works.

And I've been called far worse. Being twice divorced can lead to that...

Alternatively just buy a pair and add to your current gear list!
I bet selling the boogie and the cmd combo would pay for them..... |

Visualize the sirens by the riverbank, in Oh Brother Where Art Thou.
Ah! They look totally hot and sing sooooooooooooo nice...
Now visualize a pair of ML112s with your favorite head, and your favorite bass plugged in.
Ah! It sounds sooooooooooooooooo nice... |

So yeah, that will probably go up for sale ..or trade for an ML112! As for the CMD Combo, it's just too useful as a worthy portable combo amp for rehearsals, practice etc. Not my ultimate tone at all, but really is a pro piece of gear that works. So it will stay and be used as the tool it is designed to be.

| 1 Baer with the terror is 500 watts and just as easy to carry + it gives you the ripping tone that you want with more volume than the combo can even dream of producing! |
