I am just wondering if I made the right choice here. I bought the Renaissance II but could have also gotten the Dialogue II. This is what the builder writes about the basic differences:
Renaissance II has most analog sound is designed for those ppls who suffered by digital sounding gear. The tube equipped in auction is GE 5670 NOS tube, sadly, packed 1982, new generation tube, find WE396 or older tube to replace if you can.
Dialogue II is very musical and natural sounding with best sound stage; however with lesser current and higher impedance (1.6K) so it may not be suitable for passive preamplifier or direct hook in power amplifier or direct fed into power amplifier.
How would this 'lesser current' and 'higher impedence' have affected me? Would I just have to turn the volume up more? I am using it with a 30watt integrated tube amp.
Wouldn't the Dialogue II sound better since it does not have op-amps?
