Crush Bass 50
A similarly no-nonsense cube, the CB50 is an ideal rehearsal combo in both size and output. At 485mm high, 430mm wide and 275mm deep with a weight of 14.45kg (32lbs), it’s easily transportable via the top-mounted single black strap.
A 12-inch custom speaker lurks below the grille, with porting this time at the back and, save for the balanced XLR out, Orange has kitted out the 50-watt model with the same features. So, you get the three-band EQ with sweepable mid and the distortion circuit with gain and blend controls, plus the super-handy chromatic tuner.
There are jack sockets for input, effects loop, the blend footswitch (not supplied) and the CabSim-enabled headphone out, plus a mini jack for plugging in a CD player, MP3 device or similar.

It’s a very similar clean-and-clear tonal picture, albeit with a slightly tighter vibe courtesy of the smaller speaker. There’s plenty of depth from boosting the bass EQ without ever getting seismic, the extra focus to the tone being perfect for lower volume levels and the smaller rooms that the 50 is designed to frequent.
Faster speaker response also gets you more aggressive cut and bite when you dial in more treble, and if you combine this with a boost to the mid dial and a chunk of bass, the vista is tight, wiry and pleasingly impactful. All in all, it’s a decent selection of practical, natural-sounding variations.
