How to increase the gain on a preamp

I just received a preamp I bought a week ago, and it sounds fabulous, but the gain is very low specially when playing vinyl, I use an MC cartridge, and the volume knob is all the way up, what can I do remedy this situation?

Dear Elizabeth, There are several alternative explanations for the OPs reported
observation. That's "plain as day" to me. Anyway his
"remedy" is "almost found". Perhaps he poured some
snake oil on his phono stage.

Let me be the first to guess the remedy -- I think he hit it with a hammer.

Most likely he changed to larger cables to increase the gain
