Probably not, if you turn it all the way up.

IIRC, the old Sunn Transducers were rated at 25 watts. 50 watts for a pair of them. The Beta will put out three times that, clean, and six times that in full distortion mode.

i only run it around 2 on the master volume, maybe a hair higher. also, the beta is rated at 100 watts, no?

thanks for clearing that up though, i have seen sites saying 60 watts each, 25 watts each, and 40 watts each, so i was a bit confused
