Alan,The sight of all of those Lundahl transformers warms my heart! ;=))
You are doing the right thing by trying a number of configurations and evaluating the results by ear. BTW, a gain of 16 (about 24dB) is not a problem with CD as a source and medium sensitivity (90dB) speakers. I shoot for 26-30dB as optimum. Too much gain is a bad thing.

voltage gain (dB) = 20 log (Vout/Vin)
so,
voltage gain (dB) = 20 log 16 = 24.08dB
