    Heyyyo,

    Using an orange ad30tc (combo) amp and the clean channel just dies the odd time....like i get the tiniest bit of volume when its fully cranked, doesnt always happen doh sooo..

    Oh and sometimes it begins to hum and hiss a fair bit?

    any advice?:D

    Sounds like a valve problem. When did you last re-valve the amp?

    Yeah I'd say it's a valve, especially if it was lying in a van during that cold spell. Saying that, the valves in my Orange have lasted longer than the valves in any other amp I've owned, they are built like tanks.
    Cold weather will destroy a hot valve in seconds though....
