I’m not so sure mounting a large speaker right on your computer’s housing is a good idea, as amps can generally take a decent beating. But the hardware under the hood proves this isn’t just some piece of novelty gear.
- 4GB DDR2 RAM
- 500GB Hard Drive
- Intel chips
- Windows 7 x64 home premium
- 8 x USB 2.0 ports
- Wi-Fi enabled
- Integrated GeForce 9300 graphics card (Dedicated ATI 5670 512MB card optional)
These units will ship with recording and Orange amp simulation software included, allowing you to record and playback a whole myriad of sounds. Orange has a reputation for high quality sound, and I don’t expect any less here.
