Any other owners of Rega's Apollo R CD Player experienced any sort of quirky operating/behaviour with their player?
Have owned mine just over six months but due to moving house haven't really had much of an opportunity to use it much. Most of the time it behaves perfectly but on occasions I've noticed things such as after pressing 'play' playback won't start, player won't stop when it receives that command etc., after switching off player and unplugging it behaves itself perfectly again but then a week or two later it might occur again. I've done a google search and have discovered reports on US forums of the same symptoms I've outlined above and it seems like it could be down to the 'In House' operating system that I understand Rega have adopted for this model and previous ones (there are similar reports of these sort of glitches happening with the previous Apollo player as well), even some US dealers suggesting it could be due to an instability in the mains supply causing problems for the memory buffer the Apollo uses.
From past experiences having owned far too many players to count it isn't down to laser failure (they seem to either work or don't) or anything that could be classed as a fault more like an eccentricity perhaps!
Anybody else noticed these things with their player?
