Vibrant tirade about broken nose (8)
I believe the answer is:
resonant
'vibrant' is the definition.
(both can mean rich or deep-sounding)
'tirade about broken nose' is the wordplay.
'tirade' becomes 'rant' (both can mean an angry outburst).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'broken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'nose' is an anagram of 'eson'.
'rant' placed around 'eson' is 'RESONANT'.
(Other definitions for resonant that I've seen before include "Tending to prolong sound, echoing" , "Tending to reinforce sounds" , "Ringing - earn tons (anag)" , "Booming" , "Resounding, ringing" .)
