I suspect it will be unity gain, or less.
You're welcome to your speculation. I, on the other hand, tend to rely on ARC's own description of their output stage circuitry.
So in terms of tonal character, which was my initial point, I believe it is mostly due to the JFETs in the LS25 MKII and less to do with the 6H30 tubes.
Perhaps so, perhaps not. My previous preamp was an SP9 MKIII, also a hybrid design. It was originally a MKII and I would characterize its lower midrange tonal balance as lean as well. The MKIII version, however, with its many changes sounded fuller in that range. No active devices were changed. It was merely a case of voicing.
