I picked one of these up for quiet monday night gigs and recording and such. It's not the ideal match with my tube head, but I think it sounds alright. It's a tiny little cab, but it packs a nice punch; it can easily thump in a small room. I'm sure it's a wonderful match to the Orange Bass Terror.
I did a couple soundclips of it, for which I'm using my Gibson SG Bass which has been heavily modified (Dimarzio Model One neck pickup, pickup selector/master volume/tone controls, Kahler 7410 vibrato bridge) through my Soultone Marshall 2061X tube amp (at low volume), into the Orange, and mic'd that with a 57 (speaker only, not the port) and ran that straight into a soundcard and into Audacity. I am using flatwound strings for these clips, D'addario Chromes, 40-95's, both pickups, volume full on, tone full on. Here it is for a country-ish sound:

And here it is with a bit of fuzz added (MXR El Grande Bass Fuzz, settings Fuzz near minimum, Tone near 1 o'clock, Deep Switch on (which I've tuned for less of a low bump than stock):

I like the way this cab sounds, I've mostly been playing it with rounds but it's cool with the flats too. I'm still going to try out some other options for myself, but what do you think?
