Orange Amplifiers Crush Pro 4X12 Guitar Cabinet

I use it for guitar amplifiers and home appliances - have been working great.

Using it for guitar but appears to suit small amplifiers well.

Crush resistant. Just fits my LaCie 2TB hard drive with the orange band around it.

I bought to of these to run as a stereo pair for guitar amplifiers in a live environment. They are terrific! They handle whatever two 100 watt amps can throw at them and do not color the sound in any sort of negative manner. They definitely let the amps tone shine right through. I went from two classic Sm57s to these and I just notice more clarity and detail than I did with the 57s. Mic placement is a breeze. I spent all of 5 minutes with a pre-recorded loop figuring out the most natural sound and its very easy to find the large sweetspot with these mics. Again, the 57 does not have a huge sweet spot.

Since obtaining this microphone, I have used it to mic up two different guitar amplifiers to good effect. Overall, the sound is warm and the bass response becomes more pronounced the closer it is placed to the grille cloth. Positioning the mic around six inches away produces a more balanced and useable sound IMHO. I have yet to try this mic with a Cloudlifter, which I believe should, when used in conjunction with the Fat Head II, yield a better, hotter signal.

I use the surge protector to power my guitar amplifiers and other accessories in my home recording studio. The long power cord affords me the ability to move the surge protector around the room without hassle. Lots of outlets and slim profile. Also a major plus is the low profile/right angle plug which fits flat against the wall allowing furniture to be pushed closer to the wall.

Have always used SM 57s for guitar cabinet microphones but never felt they were all that great and accepted that I would loose some tone. Not so with the e609. It sounds much better and the flat design is great! Just hang it over the can right in the center of a speaker! It handles high volume no problem. This mic gives the FOH mix more of what you want!

I use this mainly for practice with headphones. It also works and sounds great through a PA. I was pleased to see I can also use it through my guitar amp. The amp and cabinet simulations all sound great. So I’m hoping this will add different character to my amp when needed for certain songs. It’s a great addition to any rig!

Needed two of these for a bass guitar extension cabinet. Very easy to build with speaker cable I had at home (16AWG works fine for a 2ft cable) and some hand tools- no soldering needed. Saved myself money and weight by not buying an overbuilt speaker cable. At $4/connector, I will probably pick up a few more to make backup cables.

Excellent design for attaching a microphone to small guitar cabinet. Sturdy spring-loaded clamp, precision guide to eliminate slop and bracket for effective mic placement over speaker.
