Hello, PA community.
I'm applying heavy EQ to my bluetooth headphones with a large negative preamp gain (~ -7dB) following Jaakko Pasanen's AutoEq settings list.
My inquiry: If I have DVC enabled, Can I increase the preamp gain (making it less negative) while still preventing any audio clipping and maintaining audio quality, or does it not work that way?
I'm asking this because some of the older tracks I have require that I max out both phone and BT device volumes (with Absolute Volume Disabled) to get to enjoyable levels of listening with the preamp setting I have, and I'm not too fond of having to adjust the volume many times through a session.
Thank you!

Thank you for the reply, @MotleyG
So, I get that I probably shouldn't increase the preamp gain or I may run into clipping issues as you've said DVC is not related, so I'm assuming it's not giving me extra headroom, right?
Also, DVC with BT does actually work with my device and I prefer it enabled. It's actually only some of the older tracks from the 70s and 80s that I'm finding quieter than I prefer. But I think that's probably more an issue of their older mastering than anything else it seems.
