What's up with the Rega Apollo CD player?


I've been looking to buy a Rega Apollo to use (mostly) as a CD transport, and have been noting that lots of folks are offering them at "closeout" prices. Is this unit about to go the way of so many before it? If so, think it would be unwise to buy one, on the assumption that repairs (and parts) will soon enough be unavailable?

I had an earlier Apollo and liked it, which is why I had been leaning in this direction. That said, I don't want to find that the transport mechanism can't be found, etc. if something goes wrong.

Thanks.

I don’t know what equipment you have, but if you have a decent streamer and DAC, why not just rip the CDs and play from a hard drive or server?
