Wat is the difference betwee an amplifier and a pre-amplifier? Verified

An amplifier is often an integrated amplifier, with pre-amplifier and power amplifier in one device. A pre-amplifier regulates volume and sometimes balance and tone and lets you choose what source is used (cd, tape, turntable, etc). A pre-amplifier often provides a little amplification, just enough for the power amplifier. This is an active pre-amplifier. Sometimes a pre-amplifier does not amplify, making it a passive pre-amplifier.

Manual McIntosh MC-402 Amplifier
SILVIO AGOSTINHO TONIELLO 19-06-2021
I have a problem with my McIntosh MC 402. The amplifier turns on and works normally for about an hour. After this period, the sound starts to lower the sound (first the left channel and then the right channel). I took the device to a technician here in my country (Brazil) and he told me that the EPJ94VO board (Rohs 129711 - Rev. A) has a problem, but he can't solve it. Some help? Thanks.
