When choosing a replacement, I believe you typically match it with the impedance of your power amp. If you google Goldpoint they have some good info. A rule of thumb is tube amps , 100k or 50k. Solid state amp, 5k, to 25k.
To address Syntax's point of RCA jacks, I have found most of the preamps I have used, have used a fairly decent grade of RCA jacks as OEM. Those same preamps, however have used at best maybe a $15 Alps pot.
