You can add a wordclock in to the SB3, but this is strictly a custom
operation for a modder. The clock chip in the SB is deactivated and
hardwired with a dedicated clock cable.
I suppose you mean a BIT clock? 11,28 MHz is a bit clock not a word
clock :P

I was wondering how hard it is to add a wordclock out to the SB3 and a
wordclock in to my DAC (MF X-DACv3)...so that the DAC can slave to the
sb3 without relying on the SPDIF clock...anyone done anything like
this? - is it a DIY option?
I assume you mean a wordclock
What is connected to your Transporter? A CD player, external DAC, DVD
player (etc.)?
How is it connected and how are you using the world clock?
Satisfied with the results?
I'm curious as to what others are using their Transporter for.

Very simple.

Actually I suppose for completeness I should also say I'm using the
wireless bridging feature to connect an NSLU2 (which is in turn acting
as FTP server for my Toppy PVR) to the wireless network.
Maybe not quite
Mine's pretty simple too... am still trying to swap the NAIM for a
Bryston though.

It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist

I'm trying out the Endler balanced attenuaters instead of my Rowland

I'm not sure it sounds better though.

Hi all Slim Fans. I just got a Transporter this week at the Open House
and have been putting it through its paces. First impressions: better
than expected on playing internet radio, especially classical (KDFC) -
which is a pain to listen to on FM due to the static. It is amazingly
easy to set-up
