Orange bass speaker

[RotoSoundPro]

Im looking to upgrade and there is this beautiful 4 by 10 orange speaker that I love. I'm not a fan of the orange heads and hbe heard they arnt so reliable, I have heard and tested the Ampeg SVT bass head and it's great. I'm still deciding whether the two match well together? Or if there are any other heads or speakers that work well together ?

Whats your budget? What kind of volume do you need? What kind of music are you playing?

This will really narrow the field on cabs and heads.

IMHO the orange cabs are over priced crap. There are much better options in the price range.

Never fall in love based on looks alone. The Orange OBC 410 uses Eminence Beta 10 drivers, which are displacement limited to only 40 watts each in the lows.

Listen to the cab, if you like it, go for it.

My Orange AD200B is one of my favourite heads and gets plenty of use. It has been totally reliable and has a unique tone which may or may not appeal to you. It is more prominent in the lows than, say, an SVT but still has plenty of punch and with a passive bass can stay clean plenty loud. My band mates actually prefer the AD200B over the SVT VR in the onstage mix for a threepiece, it really fills in the lows and low mids beautifully. It is certainly worth considering.
That said, if my mind was set on an all-tube SVT head I would be considering an Ampeg 810 or Bergantino NV610 as my primary goals.

That's a tough problem, two great amps. It seems Orange is doing some very good things lately with tubes. SVT would be my second choice!
