Mytek basically says that their internal clock is the same as the external clocks only with less jitter due to the lack of a long connector. The reason for the clocks is in their view to synchronize multiple digital devices.
The measured jitter performance of a Mytek is practically the same as the dCS Bartock. Also, read what dCS says here:

I quoteth thus:
Which is all very scientific and proper, and then they wax poetically:
He doesn’t say it improves the clocking. So, have at it if you have the cash. It’s quite possible if there is a change it’s not a good one.

I quoteth thus:
We began to employ external master clocks due to our experience in the pro arena, where there are generally numerous clocks running simultaneously, thereby making their use mandatory; though our engineers questioned their efficacy in relatively closed consumer systems,
Which is all very scientific and proper, and then they wax poetically:
here is both objective/measured and subjective/listening evidence that they can have a profound effect on the sound.
