That is the one I have, loose fit into the clock,  maybe it is the female connector? Also, as I asked before is my warranty valid?

Hi! Bryan,

 

This is the same male DC connectors, please contact us with email:  [email protected] to contact our customer services for repair. The warranty is certainly valid for your purchased from secondary market. 

 

Thanks and have a nice weekend.

I know what you mean. Got a rather expensive Musician Aquarius R2R DAC recently. Out of the box it sounded defective it was so bad, but after 2.5 weeks continuous use it’s become the best sounding DAC I’ve ever used.  ;)

 

We used to sell Denafrips R2R DAC few years ago. When we open the cover, the R2R inside is array of capacitor. So, it would takes relative long time to burn in. Afterwards, It will become smoother time to time. The mid-range is very nice and natural.

Hi! 

 

Happy New Year 2022. 

 

We want to share the very first positive feedback in this year. This is the comments from a Emperor Signature SE customer, connecting to the EtherREGEN at the very first moment. It is a night and day differences. 

 

Have a nice weekend and enjoy music with Giesemann Clock.

Just received my AD Emperor Signature (native 50ohm) clock for my std 75ohm ER and was surprised by the filter Adrian sent. Much different than the inline filter shown on his site.

 

Anyone else using a similar filter?

 

 

Hi! Frank,

 

Thanks for you message and questions. 

 

The adaptor in the picture is matching ohms adaptor, which is for native Giesemann Emperor Signature at 50ohms to be used on ER 75ohms version. 

 

There is low pass filter from Minicircuit, which can apply directly to the EtherREGEN, for your 75ohms. it requires a +75 version of low pass filter.

 

Have a nice day.

Aaah .. leave all the mentioned damping material, leather etc. applied to the oxco as is that is seen in my AD emperor double crown clock but use whatever paste between them and this proposed tungsten block and not directly onto the clock like the China clock without them ?  I must hv been confused and my apology but I am not joking.

 

Adrian is here and can advise I guess.

 

Cheers.

Hi!

 

We do not recommended to open the chassis and apply Tungsten block on OCXO, this is not a good idea. The metal will release heat from the OCXO and keep the temperature always, then the heater inside may keep working to maintain stable temperature inside, so the additional metal may causes performance issues.

Since we do not know the location of temperature sensor, randomly placing the Metal on OCXO will affect the measurement on temperature. So the stabilisation of OCXO cannot be achieved.  
 

Thanks

Hi! Mike,

 

Thanks for your message. 

 

The AfterDark. Giesemann clock is fine to position anywhere which is aways from vibiration. So, it will be fine to place in side the shalf, with LPS at the top. We have one customer share the positive feedback with us.

Adrian,

 

Is it easy to change the voltage from 5V to 12V on the AfterDark lps (smaller unit)?  What is the function of the potentiometer on the back of the unit?

 

Hi! Mikeg,

 

Thanks for your message. The potentiometer on the back of the unit of LPS is fune tune adjustment on at range of 0.1V - 0.3V DC.  We used this potentiometer at factory to preset and fune tune to optimal measurement.  So, we do not suggest customer to make changes.

 

For 5V to 12V, it is not possible. We are happy to provide the 10% discount code for returning customers. 

 

10% Discount Code:  LPS

 

Thanks and have a nice day.

 

Best Regards,

@AfterDark.Hi Adrian, I'm currently replacing my Gustard U18 with a Soundaware D300REF which does not use a 10MHz clock though rather 22.5792Mhz or 24.576Mhz clocks. Due to this I'll need to source another clock soon to replace my Emperor Double Crown and naturally I thought I'd see if you're able to provide a clock to suit? This would have the added benefit of allowing me to continue use of my Farad Super3 LPS with level 2 copper umbilically. I've not been able to verify whether the DE300REF uses a 50 or 75ohm input at this stage though I'm rather hoping you've experience with it?

 

Cheers

Hi! Matt,

 

Thanks for your message and questions.  

 

We can made to order one with the specific 22.5792Mhz or 24.576Mhz frequency with Giesemann Trifecta:

 

https://www.adark.co/collections/project-giesemann-ocxo/products/afterdark-project-clayx-giesemann-word-clock-x-10m-master-clock-for-dcs-system?variant=39303068385398

 

The recommended setting will be: 

Output 1: 22.5792Mhz

Output 2: 24.576Mhz

Output 3: 10M 

 

The Soundaware D300REF is on 50ohms, and will work plug and play with Trifecta. 

 

Trifecta is build in LPS, which is designed to work optimal for OCXO. 

 

Thanks and have a nice weekend.

 

Best Regards,

Adrian

Thanks for your response Adrian. Unfortunately that’s many times my budget. I may need to consider the (no doubt inferior) Musical Paradise Rubidium Clock instead. Thanks for your time  :)

 

Hi! Matt,

 

For best performance, you may consider Mutec MC3-USB, which can generate and output the  22.5792Mhz or 24.576Mhz frequency , so you can make use the Emperor Double Crown Master Clock. 

 

Thanks and have a nice evening.

 

Best Regards.
