Clipping on a new PF500

[Yodhan]

I just got one of the new Ampeg PF500 heads and I love it. The only thing I am worried about is if I have the gain up high enough to have the clip light glowing most of the time, is it bad for the amp? I like the sound I get when I clip the amp, I just want to make sure that I am not going to blow it up.

Thanks.

nah, it'll be fine. i run my micro vr like that all the time and it barely even gets warm.
