PreAmp Gain and Impact on Amp


Question; if you increase the gain output of your preamp does this ease the workload on your amp(s)? If your preamp gain goes from 10db to 15 db then you should be able to adjust your volume control down to reach the same volume level at the listening seat. Does more gain in your preamp lessen the 'load' on your amps?

Full power is around 4pm on my volume control. The control has 2db increments so maybe I should remove the 6db gain reduction resistor?
