CDP voltage output...what does it mean to volume?

Hi, I have a Cary 306sacd which outputs 6vrms. Most other cdps I have seen outputs 1-3 vrms, usually 2 vrms. So what does this 3 time difference mean in terms of real world volume? If I was to get another cdp that outputs 2 vrms I assume the volume in my system would be lower but by how much? Would it be considerable?

... how cool would it be if you could preset the volume on your preamp to different levels by input so you could volume match different sources - does that exist?
Oh yes, McIntosh has offered that feature on many of its preamplifiers for years.
