Amp Tube Swap

Gear
1

I’m thinking of doing a tube swap for my pre amp tube from 12ax7 to 12ay7. From what I’ve read the 12ay7 is 50% gain of the 12ax7. Now my knowledge of this stuff you can put on the back of a postage stamp. When they say gain do they mean volume?

If you know about this stuff let me know. I’d like to understand this subject more.
