collapse expand iconDescription

The Micro Terror amplifier is Orange Amplification's smallest Terror ever. Building on the winning recipe of the rest of the popular Terror series, the Micro Terror retains the beautiful, unpretentious design, delivering a classic Orange sound way bigger than it looks, with a size and weight making it the most portable Terror yet.

With a high tensile steel case, it is built to the same rugged specifications as the other members of the Terror family and is incredibly compact and highly portable. This is a true Orange Amp classic, with masses of vintage British character, clean crunch and full-on overdrive sounds.

All I can say is Wow!! You have to get yourself one of these

All I can say is Wow!! This little thing drips with vintage british valve goodness. Seriously did not expect this much tone and power from this tiny little thing! Easily drives my pair of 15" cabs. LOUD too...can be heard over drummer...I wouldn't hesitate to gig with it as a backup. In a larger venue you would just want to mic it to the house. Love the tone shaping on this one, and the aux in for versatility. One thing to be aware of is the newer ones like mine are NOT 4 ohms at the output, they are a more standard 8. Which to my ear sounded better that the older 4ohm model I tried in the store (thicker somehow), and as far as cabinets go, 8's and 16's are more common anyway. Gonna pick up some sovteks for it.....love it. Could be the best micro amp EVER devised!!!

Great price and size but lacks in tone

Great size, easy to carry around from place to place. Was a little disappointed with its sound quality, was expecting more from its tube pre amp. Great for quiet house practice though and it did take pedals pretty well. I would say this amp sounds best with a quality OD pedal rather than using the amps gain but I will be returning it to find something a bit better sounding.

    Awesome tone especially when you drank the gain. So convenient and lightweight. Can even gig with it if the amp is properly mic'd and loud enough in a live mix

    I use with a Gibson SG, still experimenting with sounds. Powerful, warm and smooth tube crunchiness. Very easy to use.

    The Orange Micro Terror is the affordable, perfect alternative to a full on valve amp. It has plenty of tone and at 20 watts, it can get plenty loud.

    I bought this amp so that I'm not using my practice/stage amp which is a VHT Pitbull Hundred all of the time and because it has an aux input jack. I like the aux jack for practicing with my multi media player. Like what a lot of people have said, this amp works very good with a overdrive pedal. This amp can get loud if you want it to!

    Don't let the size discourage you. It packs a huge punch. I'd recommend getting a bigger Cab to really bring out the sound. I have this paired with a fender hot rod 80w cab and it sounds wonderful. *side note be sure to check the ohm level there is a 4 Ohm and a 8 Ohm make sure you check for which one you want!

  • Great tonal variations & massive volume

    The Gain regulates the tube input , not just raw raunch & dirt you get creamy jazz tones , blues etc. Plus massive volume . Use a 12" speaker for full sonic range

    looking at the micro terror by Orange Amplification. i have a half-cab Crate cabinet (4-12" speaker) will this work? and my other question is this amp acceptable to play a multi-effects pedal board or singles stomp boxes (i have both Boss ME30 and also have pedals). last question does it have a clean channel?

    Yes it's clean. And as far as effects go, if there's another amp that has a better starting clean channel It's not by much. As for the cab we can't be sure without knowing the wattage and ohms ratings on your cab. Give us a call at 866-498-7882 and we can get you a for sure answer.
