hallsworth Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Hey guys! I just recently bought an Orange 8x10 from 1971 off of eBay. I am re-doing my entire rig so I still have to buy a new head. Only problem is that the seller doesn't know the power handling of it, and I've been looking everywhere for any info but its impossible to find. If anyone has any information on this beaut of a cab please let me know! The speakers in it do not have a power rating. He has been using a 120 watt head with it. There was an older orange 2x15 on CL a while back that was rated at 120 watts to match the orange bass head from that year. So this one could be either more? But no one really knows... I live in Toronto, ON and I'm driving down to the states to pick it up.

umph Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 i'm guessing it will be around 400watts, what head are you using it with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallsworth Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 I just sold my SVT Classic so I'm looking around for a new rack head because of a roadcase my band is now sharing. Maybe a mesa 400+ or aguilar db 359 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Foxen Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 That sort of cab demands a mid powered (100-200w) head screaming its guts out. If you want epic low end, you have the wrong cab, this is a big warm drive monster. I just happen to have an Orange OR120 from the early 70s sat about that would match up real nice, and am willing to ship internationally.

hallsworth Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 I am actually interested in that head. I'll have to sell the road case we have and get one built but not too big a deal depending on how much I can get the head for. Wanna shoot me an email? nick.h.dooley AT gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
