although this will most probably rule out most input stages and A/D converters.
Input Levels Make the Difference!
If you experience the amplifier distorting too much or too little, you should experiment by attenuating or boosting the guitar signal before the plugin, for example by using the “Volume” plugin that usually come with most plugin host softwares. For most settings, try to have as high guitar signal as possible without causing unwanted digital saturation.
If you experience that the amplifier distorts more than you would expect, use a ”Volume” plugin before Vintage Amp Room to decrease the level of the guitar signal. Don't be afraid to have peak levels as low as 24 – 12 dBFS. Experiment!
For heavy distorted sounds, clipping (digital saturation) of the input signal isn't a big problem. A saturated input signal has more power (RMS) than a clean signal with the same amplitude, which will make the power amp simulation distort even more.
