The main attribute of the LP-27a is its transparency. It is as if it wasn't there, especially with 56's replacing the 27's. The only way I detect some intrusion is when I compare the system's sound when going straight to the amp through the ZBit, and I believe this is so because of the balanced signal and not something stemming from the pre's design.
Having said that, what is the reason for the higher gain from the LP-3a? Is it part of the LP-3a's intended design? How transparent is it compared to the LP-27a?
