I have seen some reviews which suggest the 7500 will put out significantly more than 300 watts rated before it gets to its THD rated level and even more before it clips.
I drive my maggie 1.6's with a Threshol s500e, which puts out 500 watts per channel into their 4 ohm load. They can get REALLY loud with no distotion or over driving problems.
