Rega Apollo


Considering purchasing the Apollo. System is Schiit Freya preamp, Vincent SP-331 amp, Vandersteen 2C  speakers, cables and ICs are Anticables. Anyone familiar with how the Apollo sounds? Looking for a more "musical" sound, less "analytical" than my Oppo 103. Thanks.

Thanks for posting that mr_m.
I am thinking of selling my Apollo and wanted to know of a suitable upgrade, in case I ever want to play a CD again.

I have the original Apollo not the Apollo-R. I have liked the Apollo very much, mostly the buffer which checks the signal to correct potential errors on the CD. The Rega has a digital out which gives the user the ability to upgrade to the continuously improving DAC lineup, and use the Apollo as a great transport.
@mr_m - Tim, thank you for the suggestion I hadn't considered.
@2psyop - Thank you for the feedback, and the info about the buffer that I wasn't aware of.

Thanks for your prompt response.  I had a room mate named Tom Carr when I was stationed there.  We both into music and thought you may be him.

I have a Rega Apollo-R for sale here.
