Half a million Apollo's?
The Apollo has been on sale for about a year now, that would be 10,000 a week!Rega employ about 50 people, lets assume (cos it makes the figures easier) that they all actually work in production and Rega makes no other product. That is 200 Apollo players per person per week!
I think Rega would be lucky to achieve a tenth of that figure.
They are a small company who still manufacture in the UK, the economies of scale for purchasing of componants and of manufacture do not apply.
Mind you I think this whole arguement is a bit pointless, do you get enjoyment from listening to superbly reproduced music or looking at nicely made cheap boxes?
