russ, you're talking out your ass. anything put in front of an amp will affect its tone, but hark! we buy pedals anyway.

when you're playing a show or you're at a jam, you usually have more freedom to crank your amp. its at home where you want that "its on 8!" tone with the "it's on 0.7!" volume.

to the OP: if you're getting a tube amp, and you live in an apartment, get an attenuator.
