Question for all Esoteric owners with clocks .....

.....I have asked this before but never received a response that answered my question, so, I will try it again. Does, upgrading the BNC cables to the Esoteric clocks have an improvement on the overall sound. Now, the stock cords are just that, the stock cords ....but would a $500 BNC cable improve the sound ......so, if yes, then would going to a $1,000 BNC cable be even better ???? You see what I am trying to ask......if there is an improvement over the stock great, but how far should you go on these cords to the clocks ???? Thank you in advance

the esoteric DA6100 are fantastic IMHO for this, as the 6300 are for connecting DAC to transport. And yes, you will hear a difference. Now worth it or not, that is subjective as you know.

I will jump start my own thread ....again ... if you upgrade the BNC cables on the Esoteric clock does it or will it make a sonic improvement ??? I currently have Purist Audio Provectus cables and was wondering if I upgraded to the PAD Dominus would it make a difference on the clock ????

why not try it and see what it sounds like? any good dealer will lend you a cable (or the cable company).

Thanks Cerrot but is not that easy ...the cables need BNC connections and there are just not that many around to audition ......so looking for people who have tested and listened to these cables on clocks and wondering if putting some money into the cables will make a sonic difference.

Garebear-

as a "cable" guy, myself, I will advise to borrow the cord you seek. Contact a dealer/retailer that will lend the cord to you and trust your own ears. Second, The Cable Company, these guys have a good reputation for lending/loaning cables and cords out to the public.

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
