As an aside, rather than using an amplifier, I generally favor using a high gain antenna. (However, you're correct that when stations are widely separated, the narrow beam of a high gain antenna may make it undesirable.)
Antenna gain is better than amplifier gain. Antenna gain increases net signal to noise ratio at the tuner. Antenna gain often reduces the amount of multipath versus direct path signal which also improves the quality of the signal delivered to the tuner.
Amplifiers add noise and distortion which reduces the net SNR. Amplifiers do nothing to reduce the effects of multipath either.
