Class D amplifiers have very little phase shift
Ok, thanks I have a hard time with these graphs of specs.  
Class D amplifiers have very little phase shift
The first graph is the phase response of the impedance the second graph is of the frequency. 
DMS 600 Owner review
I imagine it's a wonderful player but the AKM 4499EQ with 4 channels is their newest chip. There are some dacs out that use it. I wonder why Cary chose the 4497? Oh well I doubt anyone  could hear a difference  between  them anyway.  For the price... 
Future of cables!
Interesting article no idea if it will ever make it to the fuse/ cable nonsense. If someone can figure a way to use it they will pay out the nose for it. 
Innuos - New Re-Clocker
Some of it has to do with the DAC but in asynchronous mode it’s more of a push- pull. I am only a bit familiar with the DAC I have the Benchmark DAC3B it will follow sample rate changes. So in this case it would follow the Phoenix but only until i... 
@georgehifi
Yes, it's a power amp have no idea why I said integrated other than a senior moment. 
@georgehifi
I don't  know about this integrated but their pre amps have been in stereophile.

Yes, he said the music sounded better with the reclocker in the chain.

Get an Audible Illusions S150 it doubles from 8ohm 150 to 4ohm 300 to 2ohm 600.  
Take Two 2C HiFi Epiphany - Worlds Best System?
It's  above my pay grade but those Kroma Elektra speakers are magnificent looking as is the rest of the line. If they sound as good as they look should be some great speakers  
Innuos - New Re-Clocker
Not surprising dpac996 most modern well implemented DAC’s have strenuous noise reduction and reclocking as the clock closest to the DAC chip will give the very best results. Even the $2000 Benchmark DAC 3 isolates then reclocks it has one of the b... 
Which good discrete R2R multibit DAC & why NOS ?
The Reimyo CDP 777 used 2 PCM1704 and Nippon SM5847AF filters and JVC K2 DSP which is why it was a good CD player it wasn’t NOS and made use of good filtering and up sampling which any decent R2R implementation needs to do. 
Innuos - New Re-Clocker
Is there a DAC in any of these components, Statement, Zenith,  Zen? If not then you need to be cognizant of the DAC you use as some will reclock on all interfaces including USB so that would make the point of this reclocker moot.  
Streamer recommendation under $3000
Innous works with windows 10.  
Benchmark DAC-1
I had the Benchmark 1 and now have the 3. I didn't keep the 1 very long I actually liked the dac in my old Pioneer CD player better. The 3 is a really nice dac plays everything with ease doesn't add or take anything away so lousy recordings sound ...
