Re: small battery powered, stereo amp.....ORANGE MICRO CRUSH 6S

[Per Boysen <perboysen@gmail.com>]

If you are sending stereo into it you'd better check that it has a
stereo input. Many combo amps that are sold as "stereo" just adds some
sort of on-board stereo effect to the two power stages and speakers.
Not saying that is bad, but you'd better know what you are buying ;-))

I used a Gallien-Krüger stereo combo of that kind (although you could
feed it a stereo input if going directly into the power amp,
side-stepping the pre amp) and was happy with it for at least a dozen
years before it finally crapped out. But generally, I have mostly
reached a better guitar stereo sound when using two separate mono
boxes - like for example the Roland Cube - feeding them one stereo
channel each. Maybe this little battery driven Orange comes also in a
mono version?
