Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB?
I read a lot about the Innuos Phoenix USB and everyone sings its praises even owners of expensive gear. The problem is that it is expensive.
There are other reclockers like iPurifier3, the Ideon Audio USB Re-clocker 3R, or the SOtM tX-USBultra USB Audio Reclocker. In forums the feedback is that the Phoenix beats a lot of the reclockers.
Does anyone have experience with a USB reclocker that does as good job as the Phoenix USB?

HI EVERYBODY, #tjag For my point of view, I notice the Phoenix USB actually not only having good reclocker. it also have very good x2 built-in Linear Power Supply. That’s why the Phoenix is that good with only USB (no DDC). - I’m using iFi ipurifier3, also notice have to combine add-on their iDefender (USB power/data splitter), with their flagship 5v iPower Elite plug into iDefender. lastly USB cable is 0.7m long the iFi Mercury 3.0, this is how the ipurifier3 can shine with these setup similar to Phoenix USB concept. it’s clean USB power & RECLOCK.
Jorjlien, enjoy music. |
@tjag Well I finally sent the SOtM tX-USBultra back. It just ended up making everything sound different. That's the problem when you get to a certain level, music doesn't necessarily sound better or worse, just different. The SOtM with all the add ons is an expensive piece of kit and I tried it with a master clock too. All in all you could easily spend upwards of $5-6k to fully implement the SOtM and that's if you have a master clock already. I believe money would be better spent on high quality USB cables. |
