But I agree, the Peluso capsule makes a huge difference in sound. The mic becomes nearly godly with it. The tone is so 3D and full.
I think the Cinemag will give you a bit of a coloured texture. I'm planning on doing a bit of a circuit redesign in mine and using a Lundahl output trafo... clean and huge.
What model Lundahl output transformer are you using?

Thanks,
