RE: Yes, get an amp that puts out less than 2W or get less sensitive speakers

"it IS a matter of gain."

Yes, it certainly is. Location-wise I'd attenuate between the preamp and power amp. There are some interesting things you can do in the process depending upon the impedances at either end and the cable. If you are game to measure them and build your own attenuators I'll bore you with the details. Otherwise try the one's you buy at both ends to see if one sounds better.
