My closed back orange 2x12 is a monster. DON'T SKIMP YOUR CAB!!

I wish every brand did that! Nice sounding cabs. The vertical one has amazed me more than once where I've heard it!

Nice demo! Made me realise I’m keeping my PPC212 over changing to the neo vertical version. The standard PPC212 has more sparkle and girth, the neo creambacks sound very upper midrangey and not as crisp.

I've got a PPC212 closed back and it's just the best cab I've ever played through in my life.

4x12 sounds so much clearer and present. The snarl on that beast is the classic Orange tone. Others sound good too but the 412 sounds awesome

Finally !!been looking this for months

My ppc212 feels like a tank and has enough low end to wake the dead. Best cab I've ever owned. It's been beat and used heavily, sounds amazing with the thunderverb and rocker 30. Thanks for the comparison!

yeh, my Rocker 15 Terror is going to be so happy when Sweetwater sends me my PPC212OB cab..... i cant wait to see the look on its front panel...... it will be smiling from its input jack to its power switch !!!!

I know for sure I way prefer closed back after this video. The open airness is nice but it's not as tight as the closed cabs. 2x12 which I currently own sounds just a bit punchier than the 4x12 which makes me think I'd love to have two 2x12s rather than one 4x12

Yeah, I also like the PPC 212, although I have a closed back. It rocks great.

Great video comparation!! Gran comparación entre los distintos tipos de pantalla, se puede reconocer perfectamente el sonido que aporta cada una. Saludos desde Barcelona!

It's nice to see how the ppc212v looks with a full sized Orange head. I was wondering about that.

the horizontal 2x12 sounded the best for the crunch riff imho. Not a big difference between the OB and the closed one, both sound great, and i think if would not be difficult to build a removable panel to make the OB a closed cab in case more low end is necessary

Open Back Clean and Closed Back Dirty. Now I need both!!!

I love my blk vertical ppc ob 212, I want to add the ppc 212 below it to give my sound a little more depth.

I have an Orange setp, but it's amazing to me how cheaply they put there cabs together (glue & screw not tongue & groove, comb, dovetailed, biscuit etc) and they still last and sound great.... further more, people seem to not have a problem with this like they do with every othercab making company!

What about the ppc 410? I know it's rare but how would that pair with a rocker 30 or a rockerverb?

I have an Orange Rocker 15 which has an open back with a 10" Voice of the World Gold Label speaker and will someday add an Orange PPC112 cab which is closed back and comes with a 12" Celestion Vintage 30 speaker. Should sound great!

2x12 close cabinet, sounds better than others cabs (in my opinion)

My question is will the Cr120c power the crush 412, and if so, will the two 12s in the combo still work?

Hello. Can you suggest what Orange cabinet is best for use with the Kemper Profiler

No 1x12; how's this "definitive"?

This shootout could have been much more informative had you employed a room mic (in addition to the close mic) to capture each cab’s ambient resonance. Take a lesson from Johan Segeborn on this technique.

I wonder, when this is the DEFINITIVE Orange cab video by Orange itself, where is the CR 412 cab and the PPC 1x12 ....

Would have fancied a listen to the 112 closed back as well

I just bought a Orange 412 4x12 and it has two mono plugs in the back do i just plug a speaker cable into one of them from my CR120h. I've only had practice amps before this

I need help I have a Jim Root Signature cabinet and the plate on the back that’s suppose to tell which plug in has which ohms but on the back one reads JR212 and the other reads 02888 so Idk which one to plug into or to what ohms to set the head at.

can i pair a small 15 or 30 watt orange amp with a 4x12 cab.? also can i run small amp to a larger amp to the 4x12 cab?

What would be the perfect extension cab for Rocker 32..?

Can I run a oringe crush pro 60 combo through a 4x12 16ome marshal cab?

The horizontal closed back cab sounded so much fuller to me...

Hello everyone. Which can is best recommend for TH30 head amp? Thank you.

the 212v sounds more balanced/less hissy. might have to try one day!

OB (open back) sounds great. But you need a wall to bounce the sound that's coming from the back.

I like 412... by the way if Orange is making guitar straps you guys have any made out of orange Tolex?

Love the mids of the 4x12 but a 2x12 is more practical and I couldn't really hear any difference between the 2x12 OB and 2x12 closed back on this video strangely because I know in person they would sound quite different. Because of close micing? No room mic I guess. I'd love a 4x12 with an open back 2x12 on top of it but I wouldn't want to carry all of that.

Ppc212v is my favorite in this test

That open backs lack throttle & sound to "midrangey" for me-Since I love 50 watt heads-I would go with the 2x12 closebacks.They have Punch & are better for more aggressive Heavy Rock ...

I like the either of the 212s the best because they both sound the same to me. This guy sounds like Michael Caine through a 112

I know there is probably not enough demand for it but I think it would be cool if they did a single 10”

Wow, PPC212V sounds like a vintage tone 👍🏼

I just bought a PPC 412, thing blows my mind! If you don't have one, get one, these vids will only give you clues, in person they will make you ask yourself, I been alive ______ long without one? That is ______ (same figure) too long!

Interesting video John....I have a Crush Pro 120 Head. I want to buy an Orange cab, Is the Crush pro 4x12 better voiced for this head? Or Would the PPC 2x12 OB be worth considering as an alternative. Obviously I will try both at the dealers before purchase. But any advice and info before attending would be appreciated

I love my new/used 212 CB, the only problem is the grill cloth is so thick you can’t see where the center of the speaker cone is for mic placement, even in a dark room with a flashlight 😂

I have the Orange closed back 2x12 and an Orange Crush Pro 120 head. I’m debating on buying the open back 2x12 and stacking them. Any thoughts? I figure it’ll sound good having both the closed punch and the open presence.

For me the winner is the Orange PPC 212 open back.

Orange cabs sound great

My PC212 open back sounds way more focused than this demo vid... i think got to do with the room acoustic as well.. these are great cabs and very affordable (used)

I have a OR100 and a PPC212-COB and it is a dreamteam.

The PPC412 has a rattle to it like big long chains being dragged across the steel deck of a freight ship (maybe some like it). The 212V cab sounds very interesting, maybe due to the different speakers, I'd bet two of those would sound better than one 412.

Hi guys I have 2 orange 2x12 cabs I need to buy speaker cables I'm looking at a few and they aren't suitable for powers speaker's I assume mine speaker's aren't powerd as I don't plug them into the mains power comes from amp head right ??

Hey there, I own a TH 100 head.(and a micro dark terror for fun) Absolutely love that amp. I’m currently running it through an old peavey 412 that I already had but would like to run it through a Orange cab. What I would like to know is what cabs would actually be compatible and on what level. Obviously the PPC412 would be for the full 100 watts and down. But how about the PPC212 or even the crush cabs? I never see that explained but I do see the occasional demo etc. where 212’s are used with 100 watt amps. So yeah, could you please explain to what extend certain orange cabs can be used with your 100 watt amps (TH 100 in my case as mentioned before) Would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I have a ppc112 and I find the v30 is a bit too nasally/ bright for my taste, that 212v sounds pretty nice tho

I have the OR100 going into the ppc212 why are the 212 ob different size then the 212 closed back? stacking looks odd.

Cleans: ppc412 Dirty: ppc212ob Distorted: ppc212ob

How can i conect my th30 to my ppc212? Do i use the 16 ohms or the 8 ohms in? Please help!

My big question is: does a black orange cabinet sound different than an 'orange ' Orange Cabinet? (PPC112 for example)

The lighter carrying weight of the PPC212V will be appreciated by my back (it sounds good too).

so on back of cab 412 PPC Orange how would we connect to a 100 watt amp that uses 16 ohm?

212OB!

can i use the orange pp2 212 open back with orange pedal baby.

i like the 412 myself

I’ll take one of each please 🍊🍊🍊🍊😉

Are the cabinets filled with Chinese vintage 30’s or British 30’s? I can’t find the answer anywhere.

Why is the seventh fret inlay on that LP so discolored?

Which of those guitar cabs will take a 9-string well?

Great shoutout video! The only problem is mic placement, the tone can change when moving the mic even the slightest.

A definitive video would surely compare the Crush Pro cabs to the PPC cabs. I cannot find a single, honest review of the Crush cabs or a decent sound clip comparing the two lines. All I find are well mixed sales videos. Makes me suspicious of rubbish.

Wheres the Crush pro 4 x 12 compact cab ?

Would my Micro Dark into the PPC112v be sufficient for a club gig?

Primer like, primer comentario! Orange rules!!!!!!!

ppc212v old voice) nice

Why your 212 cabs sound better than 412?

Are these clean sounds good? :P

The Orange cabs are like that new hot girl at school.. when I got my PPC212 it pushed out my other cabs, who now they sit lonely in the corner while all my amps just want to get with the new hottie. (and damn is she fine)

Wow I guess I'm an open back kinda guy. Weird.

Please make a vertical 2x12 with v30 speakers

So i have a ppc410

The 4x12 Fuller go figure.

Why did you put those speakers on the PPC212V? I would have bought that but it just sounds like garbage.

The one I was interested in was the 1x12. Lol

Orange needs to make a 1 x 12” cabinet

Still baffles me why you guys don't offer a 1X12 cab in open and closed back?

412 sounds the best to me

No 1x12 or 1x8?

1:44 2:26 3:14 4:03

He’s wearing the right t shirt

BRING BACK THE 4x10!!!

Fuck low end! 22kg OB for the win! Also give your Bass player space, low end is his home!

all sound a bit harsh with distortion.

2x12 V and 2x12 OB tone more Fat, rounded and Rockkkk

Wanted to hear the 1x12 versus the 4x12. Not definitive.

Those chords sound like “Jesus doesn’t want me for a sunbeam” from Nirvana Unplugged. “ je-sus don’t want me to get a Sunn Cab, sunn cabs are never made like these…”

#wishgranted rocker15combo 🙏🎅

From everything I've seen, the Neo Creamback speakers are just bad.

"Let's start with the clean sound" ... Uhm, it is not clean, there is some distortion fizz going on there... :/
