I'm surprised it doesn't test 12AY7 / 6072 tubes. Those are pretty frequently used in guitar amps. At least they include a module for rectifiers now. That was the reason I didn't buy the VT1000. Maybe the next version will finally test all the valves I need to test.
@@YesssszYes. I bought the product. It does its duty. Even if sometimes it has some uncertainty. I sent an email to orange amps, I never received a reply. After spending about € 900, it is a bit unseemly
For the money they're charging it's insane that it doesn't provide a more comprehensive readout. It's about $1,000 USD which is criminal for a box with lights and no screen with actual information.
It’s cool product to look at and appreciate. I’d say many people would have use for something like this, but won’t have the money for it. Although damage to amps this could easily save the right customer money. Just not many customers for this. I hope they only produced a small run.
I have a lot of amps and need this! Now I can test before heading to the studio
Looks awesome - great job Orange!
I will buy one as soon as I can afford to do so, with an expansion for testing rectifier tubes.
I wish it was affordable for home users
as an owner of many tube amps with no local amp repair techs, this is a must buy tool

You'll be waiting 15 more years 😂😂
£850 no way lol. I bought a maximatcher for that. I bought an AVO MK3 for £600. Much too expensive for what it is. No sale.
couldn't agree more, outrageous price
Was the AVO Mk3 new production?
I'd just buy new tubes. 😂
Right!.?
Buying new tubes will not help you diagnose a problem, not least because each new tube adds another unknown factor.
1000 euro for this?!?! Way to expensive. Looks nice but i'm going to pass
Building a separate adapter to sell, rather than inserting the extra slot, is crap to make money from miserable and non-serious companies
Seems like a clumsy, inefficient, and costly way to go about it

@@alessandroquazzico6565 I’m sorry to hear that they are not helping with their product. Is it not giving consistent readings?
gimmick

What would a screen display beyond what one can match in the manual from the indicator lights?
