The Orange AD15 is a 15-watt single-channel all-valve amp from Orange's AD series, designed in 1998 when Trace Elliot engineered Orange's amps. One input feeds an ECC83 with a Gain control between its two stages, then a passive treble, middle and bass stack and an ECC83 long-tail-pair inverter with a dual-gang Master after it. Two cathode-biased EL84s run class A without negative feedback from a GZ34 valve rectifier, reaching power-valve breakup at modest volumes.
