Reaga Apollo At My Local Trhift

That last sentence is telling. Again, if I paid $$$ for this I would not be happy. I consider at my price point there will never be buyers remorse.

PS Audiogon: I hate that I can't edit my title. Or my posts. I am a lousy typist, and was completely beat when I posted this. Let me edit the title!

Buyers remorse was never something I considered. Mild irritation at times, but I don't regret purchasing the Apollo. I've just come to accept that a few CDs will have to be rippped and burned to a CDR in order to play them. I'm more irritated at the music industry for using copyright protection on CDs; that's where the Apollo has most of its read problems. It will read and interpret the discs just fine when feeding the analog output but when using the digital outputs it chokes on certain protected CDs.

There have been a few CDs (out of hundreds) that would cause problems for the Apollo even in analog mode. But again, I just rip and burn to a CDR.

Oddly no problem mostly. It works great. If anything it likes to completely skip the first track, but this malfunction is very rare. I just restart the disc.
Still a grand and it can't play certain discs?
For what I paid I have had zero complaints. But for $500+?

I never did mention my very modest, but I think excellent kit. A Yamaha CR 2040, and pair of NS 1000's.
And I have a Sansui AU 919. Both great Amps in my book, and the speakers are excellent, and best of all I have less than $130 in all three.

Not working now. I bought the wrong laser replacement. Need the one that allows the disc to snap onto the spindle. Might need a new cable. I have no idea where to get the cable.
