Orange Dual Dark vs D-Moll?

[crankyrayhanky]

Has anybody had a chance to play both of these amps, or even better, side by side?
I think I understand the feature differences, so I'm asking specifically about tone vs tone with some insight on heavy hi gain applications.

Also, is there a smack you in the face difference between the Dual Dark 50 and 100 watt versions; ie 100 watt just sounding significantly bigger and phatter?

Thanks in advance!

there should be a b in front of bigger, not an n.

maybe that's the tone I'm looking for?
j/k that was a bad typo

I've had both - DMoll is way more versatile and way clearer for heavy tones. The Dual Dark has a few cool tones that can be dialed up but it's a little fizzy.
They're pretty different amps really

Not even a contest. The Dmoll is a little Herbert, for the most part.

D-Moll.

Orange do the whole stoner doom thing really well. But for standard 'approaching 5150' styles of high-gain, I don't think they're very good.
