[QUOTE="croak, post: 815806, member: 361"] Typically pre amplifiers are single gain blocks. The volume control changes how much goes in or comes out of the gain block, attenuation is then ?passive?. I believe electrocompaniet and I am sure others have played with changing the actual gain of the block attenuating neither input or output but changing the voltage gain of the active circuit. I assume by playing with changing feedback. Not sure. However, I have heard the same active devices set up for different voltage gain seemingly sound quite different.
