Orange Amps 500W Terror Bass Head Bass Amp

The Terror Bass is back and it sounds better than ever. With a valve preamp and a 500W Class D solid-state power amp, the all-new Terror Bass sounds closer to the flagship AD200 than ever before. Though the circuit is completely new, the Terror Bass retains the control layout from the original amp, with the addition of a Clean switch. This reduces gain and smoothes the top-end, giving this super-simple amp an even greater range of tones than its predecessor. From clean Pop sounds through to gritty Rock crunch, the Terror Bass can do it all. There’s also a -6dB pad switch, meaning active and passive instruments are equally well catered for. The Terror bass uses a lightweight and efficient Class D power amp, with 500 watts of power into 4 Ohms and 250 Watts into 8 Ohms. Coupled with the Balanced XLR output and valve-driven FX Loop, the Terror Bass is perfect for any situation, whether it’s the studio, rehearsal, or a life on the road.
