Dears, is the above a tactic to reduce preamp gain? Or nothing related to this? preamp is a noval aikido with 6n1p input and 6n6p output tubes.
Checked replacement of the input tubes to reduce gain, but theory says it will not be enough. I am near to pad input volume with resistors but a pot replacement might be a simpler choice? Thanx for response, please basic style as i am extremely basic. Thanxs

Changing the pot shouldn't alter the gain at all. As you mention valves though, its possible the lower value would load whatever stage drives it... which is something you don't want.
The best way to lower the gain may be just a simple attenuator at the input. Altering gain by altering the feedback internally in the amp may cause other problems and require other alterations.
