With my SBM-1 red is 1.5-2 dBFS....couple times I thought I cooked the tape and found minimal clipping...as with all Sony's anything less than 5 on the level knob could brickwall.

I paid particular attention to this last Friday and generally agree, but you can definitely push it to the limit of "quick flashes"...you generally are OK even if the lights look like they "stick" on for a moment. IMO.
