Orange Crush Bass 25 Väike bassikombo

Compact Practice Combo with Big-Amp Tone

The Orange Crush Bass 25 is the smallest bass combo in Orange's Crush Bass lineup, carrying the brand's British character into a bedroom-friendly footprint. A fully analogue signal path feeds 25 watts into a redesigned 8-inch driver in a rear-ported cabinet, producing tight lows and smooth mids. This model suits bassists who want authentic Orange warmth without hauling a full stack.

Parametric Mid Control and CabSim Silencing

Unlike most practice combos that lock the midrange to a fixed frequency, this amp adds a fully sweepable parametric mid band to the active 3-band EQ. The CabSim-loaded headphone output emulates a classic Orange bass cabinet through any headphones, so silent practice still feels like a real rig. An onboard chromatic tuner, aux input, and -6 dB pad switch complete a feature set borrowed from Orange's higher-end OB1 and 4 Stroke designs.

Power and Speaker Configuration

The 25-watt stage and 8-inch driver are tuned for a focused, room-filling sound that sounds bigger than its physical size. A rear-ported cabinet extends low-end response.

• Output Power: 25 W — headroom for home practice and small jam rooms
• Speaker: 8″ custom driver — redesigned for classic Orange bass response
• Cabinet: rear-ported — enhances low-end projection from a compact enclosure

EQ, Controls, and Signal Routing

An active EQ gives serious tone-shaping power in a small box. The parametric mid sweeps through a wide range, while the -6 dB pad handles hot active pickups without clipping.

• Controls: Bass, Treble, Middle, Frequency, Volume — plus a -6 dB pad switch for active basses
• EQ Type: active 3-band with parametric mid — sweepable midrange for precise sculpting
• Effects Loop: Yes — integrates outboard effects into the signal chain

Practice-Friendly I/O and Dimensions

Built for silent home use, the amp packs practice-oriented connections into a small chassis. The CabSim headphone output, aux input, and integrated chromatic tuner remove the need for extra pedals or apps.

• Headphone Output: Yes (CabSim-loaded) — emulates an Orange bass cabinet for silent practice
• Aux Input: 3.5 mm jack — play along with backing tracks from a phone or media player
• Chromatic Tuner: integrated — stay in tune without a separate pedal
• Dimensions (W × H × D): 32.5 × 36.5 × 23.5 cm
• Weight: 8.3 kg

Who Should Consider This Practice Combo

The Crush Bass 25 suits home-practice bassists, bedroom players, and students who want authentic Orange tone in a portable package. Players starting out will appreciate the simple control layout, while experienced bassists will value the parametric mid and CabSim headphone output for late-night sessions. It also works as a reliable backup amp for backstage warm-ups and hotel-room practice on tour.

Orange Amps — Half a Century of British Bass Tone

Orange has built stage and studio amplifiers in the UK for over fifty years, earning its place among the most recognisable names in British bass tone. The Crush Bass range borrows voicing ideas from the company's higher-end OB1 and 4 Stroke models, packing professional features into a practice-friendly format. The signature basketweave vinyl and instantly recognisable orange finish carry the brand's visual identity, while the all-analogue signal path keeps the warmth that has made Orange the choice of bassists like Geddy Lee, John McVie, and Glenn Hughes.
