"Digi 003 rack" vs "Apollo 8 Quad" for analog input needs

[Jadasol]

Hello,

I have a Digi 003 rack and I'm onlu using Line Inputs 5 to 8 because I'm using 2 good external preamps (FMR audio RNP). Always wanting to get best results (of course I work on y skills too!!!), I was thinking about getting a better interface, but since I'm only using the analogs Line inputs on the digi003, I was wondering if I would really see a difference if connecting these preamps to the line input of a better intefrace, like the Apollo 8. I know that the Apollo 8 has great built-in preamps and evrything but if I just compare the analog line input ogf both interfaces, will I hear a diffference?

Thanks!

J.

My 2 cents, but I suspect the Apollo preamps with their plugin for the Neve would be better. If you can afford the Apollo, its time to graduate from the old status quo. I'm not suggesting that he RNP is really nice, but a 1073 or an API is just much nicer
