    That’s a hard one. They both sound soo damn good. If it were me, I would buy both, but the Tiny Terror first!

    I’ve played a Tiny Terror at a store. . . it rocks. I want one. Don’t know about the Vox Night Train. I’ve never actually heard of it.

    The Night Train looks really cool. I have an Epiphone Valve Jr that rocks for $100! I modded it quite heavily but it is a great deal. They also have the Hot Rodded Valve Jr and the Valve Sr out now which look cool as well. If you want to hear the Epi Cranked go to http://sites.google.com/site/ofmemphis and listen to “Heaven”.

    I played the vox at a music store through a marshall 4X12 and it sounded amazing. Never played the Orange, but the clerk at the store (who I trust and have had many chats with) said he preferred the Night Train on account of the bigger transformers.

    Wow that is a tough one! Personally I would go orange because I’ve never had one of their amps before.

    Also the orange is probably better quality over all as its hand made in the UK instead of made in china. And orange has better warranty. 2 years instead of 1.

    Also the new Orange Dual terror 30w 2 channel version looks amazing.

    The tiny terror is made in China and Korea mate, it was the first ever orange to be made outside of the UK.

    they do make a ‘handwired in the UK’ edition too, but it’s almost double the price.

    I’ve got a tiny terror. it is superb.

    (i must admit i have not played the vox).

    The sound is fantastic and ranges from a lovely clear tone to an excellent tube driven sound.

    The disadvantages i have found with it are:
    it doesn’t have a separate clean and over driven channel.
    If you are a pedal junkie there’s no room for a send / return fx loop.
    f you’re interested in bedroom recording you will need a microphone as there is no output jack that can come on other amps (notably on some of the Marshall amps).

    These are pretty much it as far as i can think of.

    Outside of this it produces a wonderful sound how ever you have it set. I play a gibson SG into the tiny terror going into a Orange 1×12 cab and get a very sweet clean tone. I use a big muff to get an overdriven sound.

    One final thing the amp and cab together are very pretty :love:

    I hope this is of some use.
