Hi,

Looking to upgrade my Rega Apollo, was thinking possibly the new Rega Apollo R, or the Rega Saturn.

Was going to consider just adding the Rega DAC, but I get the impression from a few previous posts, that there isn't that much of jump in sound performance.

So wanted to get some feedback on which sounds best the Rega Apollo R or the Saturn.

I've been quoted £300 trade-in on my Apollo against Saturn, and £250 trade-in against the Apollo-R.

The rest of the system consists of Leema Pulse amp and MA RS6 speakers.

The Apollo-R is a superb player but IMO there's really not that much in it between the R & the Apollo

The Apollo, Apollo-R vs the Saturn is a different story; the Saturn is very much more a better spinner with a much more involving and 3D soundstage; bags of presence and low weight authority and the mids/top-end is just lush!

However adding the DAC to the Apollo could be just as good IMO

I added a Rega dac to my apollo cd player and found it to be noticable step up in sound quality, alot more dynamic and very musical, bigger soundstage and bass a big improvement over apollo, well worth the price and lots of inputs for other sources.
