I'm hoping to run it through my Sunn Beta's effects loop to bypass the Sunn preamp to go along with a Noise Diet Submarine Fuzz acting as a preamp in the other effects loop. I like the Beta power amp with a different preamp, for some reason I find the Beta just doesn't cut through by its self. It gets burred behind the bass in D standard tuning to the point it just completely disappears unless i crank the volume, but with different poweramps its an amazing stereo(ish) rig. Right now I'm using the preamp section from an Orange cr120 into the Sunn with the submarine which sounds great but I really hate dragging two heads around to gigs which I guess is good as a backup but I've never needed it as everything is solid state so I'm really hoping the Holy Mountain will replace the orange.

I had this same problem. I put an EQ pedal in the effects loop and it helped a lot. Might be something worth trying if you like the distortion sound of the Beta.
