This amp uses a relatively high-gain driver (12AT7) so the "preamp" is just a volume control and a source selector switch. Several customers have replaced the volume control with a pair of 100K resistors and bypassed the switch, for the same reason.
For more information, you are welcome on the Bottlehead forum.
Full disclosure - I designed that amp.
