Does amp output V decrease by adding gain stage?

My tube amplifier is low sensitivity, has high output voltage at 4V. I plan to add one or two gain stages to improve the amp sensitivity. The question is by adding gain stages will that results in lowering output voltage?

So the amp can mate with a giant preamp to take at least 4 Volt out to drive the amp. I am thinking to put gain stage(s) in the input of the amp. So the question is if I add gain stage(s) to the amp, does it mean the input voltage of the amp will reduce below 4 Volts?
