Apollo/Saturn, Raysonic, or CEC... who wins?

Rega Apollo 2017 newest version cannot be beat. The recently lowered price to $695 new in box. I have never been so blown away by a single component. Paid $1095 for mine 2 years ago. Thought it was a fair price. They upped price to $1325 earlier this year before announcing retirement from CD players for now. Recently heard a hifi rose streamer playing redbook file and it sounded so lifeless! That streamer sells for $2450. The guys dac was $1900. Apollo blew it away. Go for it!

I am sorry, I forgot about the Saturn &isis- way OOMPR. I know you can get new for$695. Try the music room. I bought the Apollo from them. They were reputable. If not there then us audio mart. Saw a nice used one for $550 somewhere… Think it was the music room. Good luck. I forgot to tell- I found a used dac r for $500. They really work well together. Connected via Kimber select rca digital. Set me back $390. It really sounds nice. The Saturn has twin wolfson 8742 dacs. Dac-r has same setup. Really no diff than my setup. They also share the Sanyo transport. Very good rep used in many players. Take care.
