It depends on how you look at the Digital Lens: As a 1990s device it
was relevant in its time,
but today the word length extension etc. is long subsumed by the
functionality built into current SRC chips etc.
and the quality of source clocks & clock recovery, in terms of both
error & jitter, has improved greatly since its introduction. 

However, as a way (when it is suitably modified) of syncing any
arbitrary source (that does not have a word-clock input)
to a word clock (without modifying the source itself) the Digital Lens
is a useful platform
- thus during my progression from SLIMP3 though SB1 & SB2 to a SB3 I
have not had to modify
each of the four above to sync them to my dcs Purcell-Elgar-Verona
stack,
I have simply been able to plug each successive generation of SB into
my modified Digital Lens ...
