Popular Post sandston Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 MartinT you win the Frugal Audiophile Award for 2020. All I can say about this $100 clock is WOW! Like most of you I bought this on a whim. It sat around for awhile until last week. I plugged it into my Etherrendu. Over the last two nights I have been listening to a whole new system. Attack, immediacy, localization, bass prowess and soundstage width and depth have all improved. There is nothing subtle about it. I am honestly having a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that this little box in this part of the chain is doing all this. I am experiencing a slight bit of upper mid stridency or hash however I am pretty confident this is coming from somewhere else in the chain. I believe its always been there but it, like all things, have been amplified. I will hunt it down and destroy it! I have the 3x75ohm model with a Symmetricon clock. FYI my Etherendu is powered by a Uptone LPS 1.2 and the clock is powered by one of four outputs on my HDplex LPS 300w. I have .5m Geistnote's Apogee Wyde Eye 75Ω BNC Word Clock Cable from Amazon. Cost $45.

Popular Post sandston Posted April 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2021 Upgraded a couple weeks ago from the Cheap and Cheerful Chinese clock, 75ohm, square wave to an After Dark Queen Square Wave ER edition. Both were not subtle upgrades. I use the Apogee Wyde Eye cable which is highly rated and modestly priced. Have no fear this is no snake oil. I'm going to refrain from all the audiophile superlatives here. They've all been used. I'm very impressed and very confused as to why this creates such an uplift but there's no going back for me. FYI I'm running an Asus router into my Etherregen B-A side - optical cable - Opticalrendu - Dac. If anyone wants to get there feet wet here PM me and make me an offer on my Chinese clock. I'd love to pass this thing on and open someone else's ears roman410 and soares 1 1 EtherRegen powered by Sonore UltraCap LPS1.2 -> Optical Cable ->OpticalRendu powered by SGC 50w LPS -> Ghent silver plated ->star quad USB (JSSG360)->Denafrips Hermes DDC -> i2S HDMI (Clocked by Terminator Dac via BNC)->Denafrips Terminator II Dac->Linear Tube Audio Preamplifier->Melody 845M Monoblocks -> Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables->Pure Audio Project Trio15 Coaxial Open Baffle Speakers->2X SVS 4000 Subwoofers->All connected to PSAudio P10 Power Plant Link to comment
sandston Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Would it be possible or advisable to use the clock out on the Denafrips Dac, (Terminator II in my case) to clock an Etherregen? According to Denafrips the clock out on their Dacs is as follows. Is there a Minicircuits filter that would reconcile the two different frequencies? The high precision OCXO CLOCK-OUT can be used to synchronize the devices support the following audio frequencies. 44.1KHz, 48KHz 22.5792Mhz, 24.576Mhz 45.1584MHz, 49.152Mhz EtherRegen powered by Sonore UltraCap LPS1.2 -> Optical Cable ->OpticalRendu powered by SGC 50w LPS -> Ghent silver plated ->star quad USB (JSSG360)->Denafrips Hermes DDC -> i2S HDMI (Clocked by Terminator Dac via BNC)->Denafrips Terminator II Dac->Linear Tube Audio Preamplifier->Melody 845M Monoblocks -> Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables->Pure Audio Project Trio15 Coaxial Open Baffle Speakers->2X SVS 4000 Subwoofers->All connected to PSAudio P10 Power Plant Link to comment
sandston Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 I feel the oyaide db-510 is a step up without being too expensive. Clock cables seem to be the only place I've found I like silver cables.
