Building on the overwhelming success of our acclaimed Dark Terror and Dual Dark amps, we’ve distilled thousands of customer demands into a pint-sized valve hybrid head – the Micro Dark. The Micro Dark shares the same intuitive Shape control combined with a new ECC83 (12AX7)-driven high gain preamp section, yielding screaming dirty tones that make a mockery of its miniature frame. Like its bigger brothers, however, the Micro Dark’s smoky black chassis and simple layout actually disguise its cunning versatility. Of course, there’s plenty of gain on tap to satisfy even the most discerning devotee of distortion, but this little beast is by no means just a one-trick Metal monster! Beneath the menacing exterior you’ll find a rich and diverse palette of classy and confident tones. From squeaky clean to brash and mean – whatever your style – you’re gonna love this thing. Other features include a transparent, fully-buffered effects loop and a headphone output with our popular CabSim circuitry. With the optional PPC108 cabinet, the Micro is an ideal practice rig… Plug into something a little larger, though, and you might find your new secret weapon in the studio!
The Orange Micro Dark is a 20-Watt hybrid head with tube preamp and state-of-the-art solid state power amp, finely tuned for the most brutal metal tones at bedroom volumes. Bringing the single-knob "Shape" EQ control over from its bigger brother, the Dark Terror, the Micro Dark is a tonal champion that goes from clean to mean in a hurry. Pair it up with the PPC108 cabinet, or plug in your favorite headphones for a perfect practice rig for all riffing you can put forth.
