I have new pair of speakers that are much more efficient than my old. I have an Audio Research LS7 preamp and would like no know how to reduce the gain.
Fordmod- For some very quiet, non-inductive resistors(IOW- transparent); click on, "Shinkoh Tantalum", "A-N Tantalum" or, "Vishay" at the bottom of this page:(http://www.partsconnexion.com/t/catalog/resistors.html)

One would assume that you've swapped interconnects to see if the imbalance stays in the same preamp channel? You changed speakers, and could have issues with them or their different polar response from your previous speakers interacting with acoustical asymmetries to shift the image.
Tubes might be something to look at. Gain varies between different tubes and even the two halves of a dual triode like a 12AX/AU/AT7. Usually not bad enough to be noticeable though.
Tracking between the two halves of a stereo potentiometer can be bad too.
