I'm assuming that serves to impedance match as the Aura probably has more than enough gain available to boost the LB6. James May can probably shed more light on whether this would work or not but I think there's a variety of easy fixes for that.
If impedance were the issue, then yes you certainly could use an on board preamp or one of those that is housed in the cable plug, en route to ToneDexter.

But, per my previous post, I'm not convinced impedance is the cause.
