If it’s set up correctly it should sync to the clock in the DAC. I’ve never set it up since I have my Hermes connected to a Pontus II so I can’t help you there but there should be videos on the Denafrips site that can help you confirm your setup.
Can someone explain the clock sync?
I recently got a new Denafrips Terminator 15th. I already have the Denafrips Hermes so I can sync the clocks with 2 BNC coaxial cables. I have done that but I really am not positive what this does. I did it right away when I placed the DAC into the rig because this DAC is a beast to move and make connections so I just did the connections and let it cook. All my digital sources are fed into the Hermes and I use an I2s connection to the DAC as well as the clock cables. I scoured the internet with google to find out exactly what this does to no avail. Maybe someone here can explain it? All I can gather is the two clocks "talk to each other" but does this allow the better clocks in the DAC to take president? I’m old and this digital stuff is complicated to me in some cases. Thanks!

@jastralfu I know how to do it, I have it set up. What I wanted to know is what it does. How does it work? Thanks. @jond I just want to know what exactly it does.
I am talking about the 2 BNC Cables connected to the clock output of the DAC to the clock inputs on the Hermes, what does this accomplish? |
