Value For Money : Excellent
Amp head tube 50 watts, 2 channels, reverb, 25 kg.
This is perfect but it is heavy! The reverb is in my opinion too. I think that 100 watts is still better than 50 watts.

UTILIZATION

The setup is extremely simple and well made, it's Orange, so there is no need for manual. We obtain immediately a very good sound just by putting all the buttons at noon. A low volume amp has a great sound: playable apartment without problem.

SOUNDS

I play modern rock and punk should be quite this style of music. It is a modern Orange and has a nearly infinite amount of gain. Its sound is very soft with a slight look "dirty" very friendly. I play with an ESP Viper (made in Japan), very modern guitar EMG, and it really is a great combo. Medium loaded this amp works perfectly live, it's clean it's clear this is clear: it is not for nothing that it is the most widespread of the Orange brand live amp.
But his sound in the studio is not my favorite. The attacks are not quite impactful and I find it too heavy to medium.
The Clean is good, but much less than clean the Orange TH30.
The reverb is not crazy, I use my reverb pedal boss, I prefer.

OVERALL OPINION

This amp is versatile and complete but is extremely simple - it's really great that side. I recently heard in the studio, it makes really cool, even if it is not my favorite sound. If you want to hear this amp in a big production they have put very forward with almost no effect here is where it goes ->
Youtube type: Pierce the Veil - Hell above
I also have an Orange TH30 and is more powerful than my Orange Rockerverb 50, at least until noon in volume; strange. Another strange thing: I prefer my Orange TH30 whether clean or distortion which is very strange because the TH30 costs € 750 and € 1,550 costs Rockerverb is the only thing that I find really unacceptable. I'm not very favorable to the amp to half measures and I would advise to buy directly Rockerverb 100 model.
