There's some great amps that fall in-between the 5W and 100W choices.
I know some people WILL record a 100W stack dimed...and yes, it has it's sound, but you can also get the huge crunch tones in the studio with lower wattage amps.
How you set up the amp...how you mic it...the type of room ambience you use (real or added)...all can be manipulated to create all kinds of huge guitar tones without crushing your ears.
Live...that's another thing.
