Movies will vary depending on how they were originally recorded. Comfortable movie listening for me is usually between -35dB and -15dB. I rarely crank up movies near the 0dB or beyond. Not that you can't do this, but why would you? Some CD's or DVD Audio at times I like to be closer to 0dB's but for extended listening I'm usually around -20dB to -15dB.

Your VP100 is designed to accept a receiver upto 200 Watts Per Channel, so there won't be any problems.
