About this deal

It is worth mentioning that the power supply cable and transformer of the amplifier do not have high quality or durable feel, although you can always buy another in the future without it being a big fuss.

On top of that, the cost of the amp plus the baffle is only 25% more than a good delay pedal. So, both cosmetically and sonically, the Orange Micro Terror is a winner by any measure. Its 20 watts can drive a 4×12 at a volume sufficient for virtually any scenario, so I think you’re not going to fall short on power, but then again, it depends on what you mix it with. There are also digital reverb and traditional tremolo effects onboard, providing you with the ability to add another dimension to your sound.

Voice of the World Speakers

The biggest pro is the sound. For god’s sake, the sound is as creamy as you can get for around 200€. Weighing in at less than 1 kilo, the Orange Micro Terror is possibly the most portable amp on the market. When combined with its Orange PPC108 display, the Micro Terror’s Aux input and headphone output make it a perfect practice companion, small, and ideal for transporting. This makes the Kemper Kabinet worth its 400€ price tag and an exciting option even if you are considering upgrading your Micro Terror further along. Pros and Cons Pros The tone is equally sensitive, regulates bass, mid and treble with just this knob, just like the tone knob on the guitar. It plays with a large palette of sounds, and varying it just a few millimeters affects the tone noticeably. The Micro Terror is not an amp that is particularly known for having a lot of knobs or potentiometers. It is a very simple head that can be used immediately. On the front panel, from left to right, there is the ON/OFF switch with its respective yellow LED on top of the lever.

The Orange Micro Terror is a tiny Tiny head with a huge tone. The Micro Terror is a global phenomenon; with Tiny Terror inspiration, this miniature reincarnation couples a valve preamp, which brings enormous tones that have nothing to do with its compact and delicate size. Kemper has opted for a passive system that can work as a flat response speaker or transform like a chameleon into different loudspeakers responding to the simulations or profiles generated from the Kemper Profiler. Generally when calculating the effective area of a speaker, you take the square root of the number of speakers and multiply it by the (average) size. That comes out at roughly 12 inch for 2 8s. 2 10s would have the bass response in theory of a 15". It depends entirely on the speaker of course, even small speakers can be designed to be really bassy, for example in monitors. The circuitry seems to be well finished except for some components that are a bit crooked or not very straight, nothing that may be a deal-breaker, and also, I suppose that depends on the specific model you get. Usage and Features Problem is, that although it is a thing of beauty and built up to high Orange standards, including a wooden cabinet and solid edge-protectors, it´s sound leaves a bit to be desired - and therefore may not be looked at for it´s acoustic perfomance, I´m afraid...

Small Size

Valve amps need to have the speaker impedance matched to their output impedance, so would need an 8 ohm output. I would bet that if you listen to it without knowing what amp it is, you would think it is a higher-end amp. Vox MSB25 Mini Superbeetle
