Really interesting discussions about 48kHz locking and using an external word clock.
In my first setting I used the dcs scarlatti dac and the transporter. If trasnporter was master and the dac was running as slave the quality using the separate dac was slightly better than using the analogue outpur of the transporter directly. Running the dac as master and the transporter as slave (via BNC word clock signal cable)improved the quality distinctly. I decided then to add an upsampling unit to the system (dcs Purcell). Having now three separate digital systems running I also added an external master clock (dcs scarlatti). The master clock connects to the transporter, the dac and the upsampler. All three are set to slave and are locking to the master clock. I have to say I have never hear a better system and this clearly shows that music delivered from a hard disc via the tranporter is a better solution than using any other very expensive CD player as a source. I am not a technician and cannot judge on the theoretical arguments used in your comments but I will try in the near future some different settings which have been described in the threads and also try wether I can lock the transporter to different frequencies. -- mofuv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mofuv's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13768 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39770 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
