Hi
I've been using my Quad IIs with a transistor pre-amp with no problems. However I'm trying another pre-amp and they are far too quiet. The output spec is 1v/1.2k. Is it feasible to increase the sensitivity of the Quads? The only obvious way I can see is changing the values of the resistors in the feedback loop (R10 and R11). However I'm not sure this would be a good idea. What do you think?
