If the volume you are attaining with the combo is satisfying, and you're not hearing any high freq. distortion(clipping): You are not going to hurt your speakers. Clipping burns tweeters, and sounds really obnoxious. Tubes do it more softly than SS devices when driven hard, but- You will still hear it when it happens.
