Any word from anyone on AudiogoN about the new Rega Apollo R CDP?

I see the Apollo R is now on the Rega site and, as expected, follows the new compact look of the Rega DAC and amp. The US retail price seems to have increased from the previous Apollo's $1195 to $1495.

I don't normally put much weight into paid reviews so I was hoping someone here has had the opportunity to listen to the new Apollo. Does anyone have any first hand experience yet?

Thanks.

I have not heard one yet!

US Retail price will be $1095. From what I understand, Sound Org has not shipped any units out, but they will be forth coming this month. Hopefully my first demo unit will be here shortly as I have several people waiting to take a listen. Should be a great unit!

Thanks! It will be interesting. If it's an improvement over the previous Apollo, will that mean it will cannibalize the Saturn sales? Is it worth waiting for the new Apollo R to ship or pick up a good deal on the remaining Apollos?
