Mate, "amp" is short for "amplifier" ...

and you need an active "gain stage" in a device, in order to call it an "amplifier" and "amplify" the signal.

That's the bit I have difficulty with - I know my Latin (wrt to the "pre" part!).

Passive line-stage is the more appropriate term, in my book.

Andy
