[QUOTE="maylar, post: 7725284, member: 541144"] I put a scope on a Pioneer deck once - an older model DEP-6400 I think - put it under 4 ohm load (speaker outputs) with a 0db test tone CD and it went to 50 out of 60 before clipping. Don't know how that relates to the preouts or to modern units but it kinda supports the old rule of thumb that 75-80% is a good max volume point. If you're looking to split hairs at the end of the volume range you'll need to 'scope your particular unit, they can vary a bit. [/QUOTE]
