Replace it with the exact some one as what was in there. ......the F1AL 250V.

Dumping "lemon components" back onto audiogon and passing the buck accomplishes nothing and truely comes off as a bit dishonest. Get in touch with your authorized Rega dealers/distributors and get the ball rolling. Whether you're the original owner and sold it to someone else, or whether you...

For the record..... GE, Sony and Denon are much larger corporations with a ton more resources. You can't compare them with Rega. Rega is a much smaller operation . As far as firmware updates, has anyone ......any of you contacted Rega to find out if they have any firmware updates...

Two Apollos and one Saturn, here. I've never had a problem with any of them. They work perfectly, sound wonderful and just keep on truckin'. One of my Apollos was bought within the first month of their release. Then again, I don't fiddle around with the remote much and skip songs, back...

You may have been listening to an LP that was mastered/pressed from a digital source; which pretty much defeats the purpose. As opposed from analogue master tapes. Most of vinyl these days are mastered from digital sources. Try getting your hands on LPs mastered and pressed prior to 1980-82...

Butler Audio has been making tube amps for cars, for years. Butler Audio I have their home audio gear/amps (TDB 2250 & TDB 5150 ). Wonderful stuff.
