Input/Output/Fx Loops heardoom

Does anybody knows what is the nominal headroom of inputs, outputs and send/returns?

 

I'm new to the helix world still have to experiments with pedals in the fx loops but I was wondering, for example, how much can I boost with a clean boost in the fx loop before clipping the input side?

 

Or, how much can I boost with an helix block at the end of the signal chain before clipping the output?

 

Of course there's not a unique answer to this question one you start messing with volumes inside the helix because but I'm sure there's a nominal level (wich only line 6 knows).

 

At the end I'm interested in an indication of the performance we may expect from the unit in the case it's used with 4 cable method with a tube amp, a situation where you might need to boost the front of your amp with and helix boost or a boost in on of the fx loops and need to boots at the end of your signal chain (again internally or with a pedal) for solos.

 

I agree with those who are asking for some kind of meters for inputs and outputs.
