This is for a friend who is still using one.
There are three switch settings, "0" Low and High
And then two gain knobs without any db information.
I don't know much about the unit, although intuitively I would set the switch to "0"
What should he set the preamp gain knobs for minimal gain, like 10-20db with a Sony M-10?
So far with the Sony at Unity, about 4.5, the knobs seem to work best at about a third of the way up from zero or off.

You want the unit to be on the low setting. low goes from 0-40 db, high goes from 41-76 db. I have one and if you have any questions, shoot me a pm

Confirmed. 0dB is no gain and low/high are as stated by jmerin. You also want to make sure the LF Cut filter is in the up position.
Attaching the user manual and I also took a picture since you said the gain knobs don't have any dB information; I assume they've rubbed off over time.

I Love the pre amp. Sounds so good. I have the lemo version.
