No it won't. The lower, the better. That preamp must have a cathode follower output stage, which will make it a good performer during high-power demands.
I had a low Z cathode follower (CJ) and felt like it added to the noise floor too much. The linestage had 27db gain and my amp was 100K input impedance and 1V for full output.
