Hello I am trying to figure out exactly what the phone level dial on an exclusive C3 amp is actually doing. From the schematic it is before the phono amp board. There are also 25k, 50k and 100k load buttons. Both these buttons and dial are for the phono 2 input only. Schematic link.

Is it acting as a variable load resistor like you could put at the output of a step up transformer or is it actually playing a part in amplifying the input signal.
Thank you.
