There's nothing gained by using an impedance matching transformer. To match the performance you get with the impedance matching transformer, without one, turn up the volume control.  Either way, you have reached maximum usable volume when the input clips and you hear distortion. You may get to that point at a lower setting on the volume control with the impedance matching transformer, but with or without it, the maximum output available is the same.

You may feel better if the volume controls are closer to the same setting (using an impedance matching transformer), there's no benefit to adding another device to your signal chain. It's another potential point of failure, and a relatively large device to plug directly into the S1 Pro.  You don't want to damage the input if you knock over the S1 Pro and it hits the impedance matching transformer.
