Transporter and SB are both computers which request data in some format
from slimserver over tcp/ip and decode and buffer internally.  I don't
see how the clock affects at all this stage of the computing.  I have
no idea how the internal DAC or digital out is controlled in hardware
level though, never been into audio hardware/drivers.

I understand your statement in the context of relaying SPDIF from one
source to another, but not when the source is a computer.

(Sorry about the rantish feeling of my posts, bit too much beer in the
system.)
