benifits of reclocking

Hello.

I am just about to send in my Music Hall CD-25 that has a Level 1+ mod to have the clock upgraded to a Dexa D Clock and at the same time add the Burson dual op amps.

Can you experts chime in and ad what your experience has been in upgrading the clocks. Apparantly the Dexa clock is the cat's ass.

Thanks,

Dwight

I sent my jolida player in for service and they replaced the original clock. Marked improvement in pace rhythm timing.

I don't want a cat's ass in my transport. However, I did have a SuperClock 3 installed in my Audio Refinement Alpha player with great results......until the cheapo mechanism crashed and nobody could fix it even with a new transport. It did sound far better though after the clocking.

LOL! how about the "cat's whiskers"?
(cat's ass? GOK where these people come up with these phrases??)

Redsierra,
the benefits of reclocking are mostly to reduce jitter that is injected into the digital signal @ the output of the transport due to use of an imprecise clock source & low(er) slew rate output buffer.

This is WAY off the subject but I've always heard it as "rat's ass" as in: "I don't give a rat's ass". "Cat's ass" is new to me. As a superlative I've heard "cat's meow" as in: "That's the cat's meow". Have we confused the two and run them together?
