It's really amazing the quality of gear we can get these days. For less than $500, I've been able to put together a full recording setup that I should be able to produce very high quality recordings with. Seems like my biggest limitation will be having a location to record in that offers good acoustics and limited ambient noise. That really is the biggest challenge, seems to me, not the equipment.
The beauty of the R8 is the ability to record anywhere easily. As TBman noted, a room or location can be the biggest single factor in "good sounding" recordings. Set your R8 up for a 24 bit recording and have fun!
