[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 4113441, member: 549629"] Well, you want as high a signal voltage as possible at any given time. But at some point, if induced noise is already inaudible, more signal voltage will give no more benefit. The owner's manual should give you a signal input voltage range, this will tell you what the max setting is on the knob. If its simply labeled 1-20, hopefully the book will give a better idea what this corresponds to. And don't forget, "max gain" means minimum input voltage. You are adjusting an input sensitivity. So if your signal voltage is 'high', your gain should be set 'low' to compensate. The hotter the signal, the lower the input sensitivity should be to balancce it out. I only mention this so nobody misinterpretets the terminology we are using here. [/QUOTE]
