Yeah, I'd estimate it at around 3db //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Yes. A good percentage of music will never hit a -3db test tone at 50Hz and 99.9% of music never hits a 0db 50Hz test tone. I use a 0db test tone to reduce my chances of clipping even more of the -3db test tone.
