Peavey Classic 50 410 Speaker Question

So, I've had my 410 for about a year now and have loved it. However, I've decided I want to install some new speakers.

After doing some research, i decided I wanted to get some Celestian Greenbacks as I prefer a more british/classic rock tone.

My question is this, can I even put a G10 Greenback in my 50w 410? When I look online at the Greenbacks, it says it is power rated for 30w. Does splitting the wattage to all 4 speakers drop it enough for them to handle it?

4 x 30 = 120
That is just about the classic Times Two calculation.
Best

K, thanks.

Never messed with speakers before. Thought that was how you calculated but didn't know for sure.

Years ago when those amps first came out, a friend of mine had one and wanted to do a similar speaker swap, adding Celestions (not the Greenies, though).

New speaks went in, new speaks came out....and in a hurry. Don't know about the new Classic 30/50s, but the speakers in those old amps were made specifically for that amp and voiced accordingly.

YMMV, of course--but I'd want to get a liberal return policy with the new speakers--just in case.

Good Luck! I hope it works out for you. Let us know.
