Orange Cabs

I while back I asked what cabs would go well with my 5150. The general consensus was something with V30s and I agree. I love the V30s with the 5150. I also use RG7321 with M7.

Most said I should get a Mesa/Engl cab. Though awesome cabs, there is no way for me to check them out before oredering them from overseas. So...

The Options that are available in S.A. : Ibanez TN412, Orange 4x12, Crate BV412, Marshall 1960 Cab...

Right now, I'm leaning towards the Orange Cab, but if the Mesa is worth it, Ill figure out a way to get one.

The Orange 4x12 sounded pretty awesome when I tried it. Of course, I was running a Thunderverb through it.

Awesome . They are pretty easy to find around here and they seem to be the best bet for me. Any other thougths on M7 + ts808 + 5150 + Orange?

used to have the exact same setup, but along came mr powerball so now thats the only difference in my current setup.
however it should be common knowledge by now that orange cabs are the best v30 cabs that money can buy and are worth every bit of that enormous price tag (though its not the highest i have seen cabs go for...)

if you can afford it, buy it now. 18 plies and denser wood in a compact cab make for the tightest and yet most projective and present sound you can get from a v30 cab. if v30 isnt your thing, seek out matamp cabs which make the exact same product but with eminence speakers.

basically every amp sounds better thru this cab (so long as you like v30s and even if you dont maybe you will love them after trying this hehe)

Axel will become famous soon enough
Ok I use a 5150 with Lundgrens as well and I've been searching for the right cab forever. I have tried several cabs including the orange and opted for the Splawn with eminence speakers in an X pattern (Governor and Manowars). I'll be sure to post some clips once my drummer finishes tracking drums. Vforvendetta can vouch for me, he came with me today when I picked up the cab and heard it himself through a Brunetti and was very impressed. It's also a great price. No sense in paying 1k or more when you can get a better sounding cab for less.

The thing is...
1. Is it still less than 1k with shipping and tax?
2. There is no way for me to test it out.
3. I like V30's
