| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Indeed Rega has made no secret of all this, actually they made a big deal that they were the first ones to use the new system (which will probably eventually appear in other players as well), what they do make a secret of is that there are still b... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Doug, It is in the Sam space (stereophile) review of the Saturn and there is also information about it on Regas own website if you click on the review link to "what russ andrews thinks about the saturn". Sony and phillips announced awhile back tha... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Dick, My undestanding is that the system was designed by computer/software guys as opposed to audio guys. Rega gave the "redbook" to them and they created the new operating system. So, As you say you'd think they would have the foresight to allow ... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Dick, thanks for checking back and posting. The problems are usually occaisional and intermiitent, and hence why Rega says they are unable to duplicate them, so to them there are no problems. Any serviced or replacement machine will eventually exh... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Darrens, Absolutely there are plenty of people with these machines who report zero problems- as the reply from the Rega distributer may indicate. However I had 3 Apollo machines and a Saturn machine over a nearly 2 year period and every single one... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn I dont have any wifi or infrared device of any kind in my house. I dont even have a cell phone. For awhile I sometimes thought the unplugging suggestion made the problem go away, only to always have it return. Please let us know by email or postin... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Bassdude, I agree a seller should disclose to the buyer. Most but not all of the problems are experienced by users who do not play entire discs. I told my buyer of the intermiittent issues these machines have, he said he plays entire discs, so all... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Wkass, I agree with your feeling. As you know me and doug shroeder used a total of 9 of these new Rega machines over a period of 18 months or more and all exhibited intermittent operational problems (which does not limit the bugs to just the first... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Wkass, I think the response offered by djohnson59 is probably the reason why slightly but not seriously scratched cd's drop out or skip on the new Rega machines. In addition to controlling laser focus and accuracy, Regas new operating system sets ... | |
| Jazz Recommendations Gigi Gryce "Nica's Tempo", this contains some superb Theloniuos Monk tracks. | |
| New rerence Rega CDP?? No thanks, given my experience with Rega's new cdp's (see Rega drop out thread). There are a number of other users that post with various problems. Me and Doug Shroeder are an isolated instance lol. | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn I postulate that the percentage of defective machines is greater than 5% for the following reasons: a) about 40 percent of problems in general simply go unreported (like crimes for example) b) defects are primarily manifested only by users who don... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Steve, thanks for your response. I'd like to say that indeed you and Allen at Audiowaves provided superior customer service surrounding the issues I had with the new Rega cd players. I am well aware you do not make the machines, merely provide sal... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn I'd like to add that those who have the machines currently and say they operate fine, you may be in for a suprise. My 3rd Apollo worked fine for 6 months before bugging out, and got worse as time went on. I am convinced that the problem is bugs in... | |
| Audio Dropping Out on Rega Apollo and Saturn Sorry to misinterpret your post. I have'nt had any problems with drop outs, only sporadic intermittent operational issues. I did ask my dealer about a firmware update and he said there is none. The way he and Rega tell it me and doug Shroeder are ... |
