The problem is actually with Dennon receiver that has poor input dynamic characteristics and probably extreamly low input impedance. High line level output components may do much better job than even tube phonostage. I strongly suggest having for music a dedicated line preamp.
Liz,
Can you tell precisely which introduced CD player(s) had 2V output.
I think the high resolution/quality models that came in mid-90's started having this kind of output level but not before.
Most of conventional consumer CD players have < 1V outputs
