Roland cube street ex & preamp pedal

Hello,

I have a roland cube street ex and recently i tried to “upgrade” my guitar sound with 3 pedals.

A looper rc1, a boss ge7 eq and in front of them an acoustic harley benton preamp with teverb and chorus.

This preamp is capable of making the sound more clear and of course more loud.

Actually i have the amp in echo mode ( this means it will use only 10 watts of its maximum 50 watt power ) and volume at 9 o clock. Without preamp i have to set it around 3 o clock in order to hear well my guitar.

My question is that: Can this preamp cause some kind of damage in the amp?

Thanx in advange

Yes. The amp can only go as loud as it can go. You can’t magically make it twice as loud as designed without damaging it over time. It may sound loud now, but the speaker will probably break down.
 
Sorry for my english.
