For that unit you'll need a clock that outputs 44.1, 88.2, and 176.4. Try an Antelope LiveClock and upgrade its wall wart to a good LPS. If you want to go further, the LiveClock may in turn be synchronized to a 10mhz atomic clock like Mutec, Cybershaft, or Stanford Research System.

The most affordable https://www.m2techusa.com/collections/frontpage/products/evo-clock-precision-clock-generator you must buy an highend BNC cable How cost the Esoteric compare to your Marantz ? May be with Marantz , the difference will be subtile |
This difference may: 1- not be better2- is very DAC dependent. From an electrical engineering point of view, you want the clock as physically close to the DAC for the best signal and lowest jitter. I prefer to get a DAC with a great internal clock, Mytek. Anything outside the case is going to be worse just due to the distance involved. I suggest you audition your DAC and keep an open mind as to which version sounds better. Best, E |
