Zzounds seems to have them in stock right now. I bought a 50 watt model back in June and I absolutely love it.
That's good news, I want one but can't really swing it now as my wife lost her job because of COVID. Hopefully the TB500 sticks around for awhile.
Got my AD200B back from the tech... complete service, and new power tubes and tone and Master volume knobs(I'll take a pic of its purty new face asap).
It's as new, according to tech, inside now, and sounds superb.
Was gonna get Tung-Sol 6550s but available supplies weren't good, so ended up with EHX 6550s.
Not many gigs upcoming, so dunno when I'll get to gig it again. The outdoor gig we've got this Sunday week, I'll probly use the DB750 thru Bergantino NV215. But the AD200B won't be far away
So I have been doing a little experimenting with my AD200 and various cabs. I bought two OBC210 minis recently and they sound good but they are super boomy. I moved the head down to my Fender Neo 410 and man what a difference. I love having the whole orange esthetic on stage but I am not sure I will use the two 210's due to the extreme bass they put out. It can get hard to dial out.
Now the OBC115's on the other hand are perfect.
Anyway for 10's I think I will stick with the Neo cabs with the AD200 as it just sounds better to my ears.

I have a Broughton always-on adjustable hpf, any of the broughton models seem to be widely used here (on TB). They are good quality. I don't know if you have a multi fx like a zoom unit, but they are built in on those too.
Agree on the OBC115'S, they are great. Do you run the 210 minis horizontally or vertical? Vertical would reduce the floor coupling and the boominess as well.
Both. I took the suggestion from Hachimitsu about the high pass filter. I tossed my Alpha Omega on and had to crack the HPF and it definitely helped.
I guess I'm glad I wasn't able to get the 210 minis after all. I used that money on a Mesa TT800 instead and that worked out excellently for me. And the OBC115's sound awesome with both the Terror Bass 500 and 4 Stroke 350 anyway so I am good.
Hello everyone, I switched from a Fender Rumble 75 combo to this thing today. I have to say it feels really nice to be playing through something a bit louder for the first time in 10 years. Never tried anything from Orange before but when I got to bring the Terror bass home for testing from the local music shop I knew within minutes that I couldn't bring it back anymore 
Ended up testing it for four hours straight and went back with the debit card in hand. Really like the 112 compared to my old Ampeg 410HLF cab so I'll probably just buy another one and call it a day I guess. Can I join the club too?

I'm real happy with my Terror and 2 OBC112's.
Let the games begin !
I started out with a 2x12 from 440 Live. I've dealt with the builder for decades and know the products. It sounds gorgeous.
Never one to leave well enough alone, I saw a great deal on a used 2x10 from 440 Live and just had to give it a go. Due to impedance minimums the 2x10 will be powered by a QSC RMX 850 power amp, which will get its signal from the slave out. I'm just waiting on a rack case I ordered for the power amp. It will go between the 2x10 and the AD200 head. Pic just because.
@Funk With Me I am seeing some improvement with the 210 cabs. I used my Alpha Omega with a HPF and that worked like a charm. I will most likely get the Broughton always on HPF listed above and that will most likely get it where I need.
I have a dbx crossover I can put onto service if necessary. I'm hoping it won't be, but it's there if needed. The 2x10 in this case is mostly to help me hear some detail on stage.

Have fun with your new srtup! Sure! #203
Hey Orange heads, just thought I would drop by and say "still loving my TB500". Went to jam with some guys a couple weeks ago, they told me they jam in a smaller room so I only took one of my OBC112's. So we start jamming and the drummer was a hard hitting and things got loud quick so I cranked it up and boom, take that. They look at my little speaker . Love the sounds I get out of this set up. Anyways, drummer was loud but all over on timing, to bad. My main band " Pavlos Garage" is fun. Even though we won't be playing any shows anytime soon we still get together every week just because we love playing music and that's what it's all about.
The Terror Bass is a dream come true amp for me. It has all the sounds I've been looking for. My "classic rock" band is on hold, so I haven't been taking it out. I have an SVT-7 Pro also, but the TB is #1.
I've been gaining a new found appreciation for my Orange 4 Stroke. I tried Oranges rock setting from online and made a few changes.
This is really sounding good. A bit different from what I am used to, but still sounding really good. I just might try it on my gig this coming Saturday.
And the compressor is set at 10, although that and the EQ could still be changed on sound check.
