+ 1 Lordmelton. I had the Word Clock when I had my dCS Vivaldi stack and turning it on and off within the system enhanced the room ambiance significantly, making my system sound more lifelike. Recently I added a 10Mhz Afterdark clock to my Etherregen, then upgraded the AD clock and the Regen with two separate Farad LPSs. I upgraded the LPS cables (both the AC and DC) then finally upgraded the clock cable with ADs top clock cable. All this switch associated equipment was about 4 K in cost, but it has removed the digital grunge and allowed a sweet stress free digital stream. I am delighted with the sound of this equipment feeding my Grimm MU1 and Lampizator Pacific DAC. I do feel silly in a way having spent so much money on the switch, but it has been worth it in my system. I expect a company (I hope it's Uptone! Come on Alex!!!) will package these components together at a lower total price and maybe even better quality without needing so many cables.
To the question of clocks and transports, ran my Esoteric K-01 with the dCS word clock and it made an improvement in SQ, but the 10Mhz AD clock on the Etherregen and associated cables and power supplies made a much bigger positive impact. When I put these clocks in my system it's not like I was struggling trying to pick one cable over another, it's not subtle and you will not want to listen without it ever again.
