Newbie Student question: How important are engaging lectures and professors for academic success?

Hi all, I've come at a crossroads between two universities.

One of them has a great reputation, ideal campus atmosphere, great people, but the lectures are incredibly dry (These are compulsory units I can't get out of)

The other university is less prestigious, less facilities, and okay campus vibe, but has more engaging, and interactive lectures and professors.

Do engaging lectures on the whole contribute significantly to absorbing material, and academic success?

I'm quite passionate and motivated about the field of study, so there's no problems there. I'm just wondering what people's different perspectives and conclusions are from their time studying, and how much weight I should put into this when making my choice.

Cheers!
