Clocking: again!


There are all manner of folk claiming that clocking is irrelevant to Ethernet and USB connections. While this is obviously ignorant of the RMI/EMI and ground level effects on DA conversion and the analogue stages of a DAC, the level to which digital clocking matters was again brought into stark relief when I changed the clock cable between the Antelope 10m clock and the Etherregen from the cable supplied by Antelope to a Shunyata Clock75 Sigma cable. Shazam! Everything jumping into focus and significantly more snap and reverb. In our hobby everything matters and we are only at the very beginning of optimizing streaming.

Oyaide DB 510 is excellent value at around £150 for 0.7m on well known auction websites.

Hi,  My Tambaqui is both my  DAC and Streamer.

I have EtherREGEN directly in front of it.

Please clarify reclocking the DAC vs Reclocking the EtherRegen.

Thanks, Ken

@fastfreight,

to my knowledge the Tambaqui has neiter word-nor master clock inputs. So all you can do is reclock the Etherregen, which with a good clock should nevertheless prove worthwhile doing
