Volume/gain stage best practices

Hi,

What is the optimal gain staging for the MTM MkII?

A) High input signal and volume reduced on speaker?

B) Nominal volume on speaker and input attenuated to meet desired output?

Is the input volume digital or analog? Where is it placed in the chain? Is it:

ADC - DSP - digital volume - DAC - Amplifier OR analog volume ADC - DSP - DAC - Amplifier OR ADC - DSP - DAC - analog volume - Amplifier?
