What does "3ppb OCXO clock" mean?  Is this similar to SoTM sCLK-XXXX clock modification ?

 

I dont know what type of clock SOtM uses but read the link below that is a OCXO clock and 3ppb is the accuracy.

Chassi looks to be all silver, will it also be available in all black?

I think they are very short, like 10cm short. 

 

If they are that short you could never connect them.

Too short to separate

 

I would say they are around 30cm or one feet.

Some on the Taiko forum have claimed that Roon's sound quality got worse a few updates ago.  I think they may be right.  

 

Still Taiko them self wrote this.

 

Hello All,

We have conducted a thorough investigation in the past 3 weeks since the much discussed Roon update to build 537 launched. We have not been able to find any difference whatsoever relative to the prior build. The update we applied following initial reports of degraded sound quality should be considered as a “general sound quality improvement update” not related to Roon, in stead of a “fix for a sound quality degradation caused by the Roon update itself”. I hereby retract any statement made by, or on behalf of Taiko Audio that there does in fact exist a sound quality difference between Roon build 537 and prior releases.

 

I use Roon and dCS Mosaic (perhaps Mosaic is a bit better in sound quality) and I often tried to just use Mosaic but most of the times I go back to Roon.

@kennyb123 I got Roon from the begining mostly because the way it integrated my Tidal account and local files but since I moved over to Qobuz most of my listening is just Qobuz so the need for integration is not that big anymore.

 

I really do like how Roon works, the radio function for example find music I would never have found on my own but if for example the new Innuos OS2.0 and their new app would also do something similare that could be something to consider.

 

Quite a few members on a Swedish forum uses Innuos servers and now Phoenix USB re-clocker is making a buzz so my thoughts of removing my ROCK solution and dCS NWB and go with either a ZENith+Phoenix or even a Statement is something to consider.

When I opened this thread in April 2018 that Innuos was releasing the Statement model I would never have thought that I would own one. But in summer 2021 the Statement and a PhoenixNET arrived to my house and for the last couple of weeks I have been enjoying the Next-Gen upgraded Statement.

 

It is a fantastic machine and it sounds wonderful with my TAD equipment 🙂
