Mlmusic - Probably a dumb question, but what do you run through the Rega DAC to beat the apollo? Don't you run your CD player through the DAC? Again, sorry if my question sounds dumb.
I assume MImusic has his Apollo running through the REGA Dac using toslink/digital coax. He is using the Apollo as the transport and the Dac as the Dac.
As a Rega dealer I agree with all that has been said above. It is one heck of good Dac for $995!
I also had an Apollo, and the DAC is far better. I didn't have them at the same time, but I lived with the Apollo for about 4 years, and got rid of it about 3 months ago.
I run an Apple TV gen 1 into the DAC. The ATV reportedly has a good amount of jitter, but the Rega DAC uses proprietary re-clocking.
