I'm using a Model 750 and an old Parasound HCA-800 (for surround back channel) to drive Paradigm Reference speakers, and don't get to 0dB normally. I tend to watch TV (digital cable or VCR) at around -22 to -18 and DVD's at around -18 to -12. CD's are anywhere from -25 or -20 under normal circumstances to around -10 if it's just me at home and I'm really cranking it.
