Impedances are NOTmatched in this sense!

In general, a PRE should have the lowest output impedance practical for the circuit.

An AMP should have the highest input impedance, ditto. This svoids the AMP loading the PRE signal.

Impedance matching is only relevant for POWER transfer (not voltage) in tube amplifiers, or for tramsmission lines at high frequency to avoid signal reflections.
