[QUOTE="chrisc, post: 815795, member: 746"] The gain would be the ratio between the input and output. To make it easier for consumers to understand, this ratio is seldom specified but instead, the voltage input to achieve a 0db signal at output is shown as a value in mV, typically 100mV The attenuation can take place after the first amplification stage where any change in impedance will not affect the signal If you look at the circuit diagram of single chip amps, this is how they arrange the volume control (you could call it attenuation) [/QUOTE]
