Using my preamp for the high output CDP narrows the soundstage and loses resolution. I bypass it altogether and use attenuators instead. The preamp is used for the vinyl source where it is truly needed.

Do we have any idea how many matching &/or interstage transformers or gain stages have been used ?

Good point. Clearly, my better sounding recordings are those that do not use armies of devices. Telarc and Windham Hill are two labels in my collection who choose a minimalist approach to great benefit.
