Preamp Outputs Voltage?

Preamp Outputs Voltage?
Lil education needed. I was to basicly make my system louder. I have a Pioneer DEH-P6800MP. I fould out the preamps are 2.2 volts, so that how much I run the gains from my amps up to, but I WANT MORE...
I was thinking about getting an HU with more preamp voltage in the RCAs, leaning towards eclipse but i'm not sure if it makes sense. If i keep running the gains on the amp with the voltage of the HU, won't it sound the same volume either way no matter what the voltage is/ plus strain the amp out even more?
I was also into the whole equilizer with a preamp (KQ9) thing, but the HU has tons of options as it is, so I don't know...opinions/ ideas?
thanks

Also, your HU will only drive the RCA's to 2.2v at max volume, , not all the way through the volume range...
