It is usually pretty unambiguous when the clipping starts, in my experience. The scope trace looks like a nice sine wave, and as you crank up the level you reach a stage where the tops (and or bottoms) of the sine wave start to flatten off. The maximum level before clipping is the level just before any sign of flattening of the positive and/or negative peaks begins.
