Tube home pre-amp and pro amp-sensitivity question

Pro Audio Asylum

Pro studio recording equipment and music production/industry.

I'm sure at some point in time this has been asked and I did look it up in the archives here, but I really wasn't clear about the answer. I have a home audio Lazarus tube pre-amp. Will there be a sensitivity problem if I hook it up to a pro amp? I've heard some pro amps before and I like the VALUE and sound. I haven't picked one out yet so I can't give you the sensitivity of the amp either. You seem to get a lot more for your money with pro amps than with home audio amps.
Also I really don't know what the sensitivity is of the Lazarus pre-amp. That will make it hard, with not a lot of information to go on, but I'm hoping most home pre-amps have similar sensitivities.
Are there any inexpensive pro amps you guys would recommend, say around $200? The amps I heard were pretty expensive. Maybe one I could pick up on E-Bay. I don't need a great deal of power because my room is about 220 SF and my speakers are 91db. Thanks for your help.
