If you don't find a related setting in the manual possibly to disable the CLOCK OUT, an email to Alvin at Vinshine Audio (assuming that's where you purchased the T+ 12th) should get you the answer you're looking for.
Denafrips Terminator+ 12th - Clock Out LED on - Operation Help.
Hi, My apologies if there is a thorough explanation of this topic; I cannot find it - feel free to point me to it.
I recently got a Denafrips Terminator Plus 12th Anniversary DAC. I am running USB straight from my computer, and have the appropriate output selected. It runs fine. However, the "CLOCK OUT" led is lit up - which leads me to believe it is wanting to rely on an external clock or is attempting to send its clock signal out.
I am only running the DAC - no external clock. Literally, Computer USB -> DAC -> Benchmark HP4 (as headphone amp and pre) -> Classe' Sigma Amp2 -> Speakers.
Can someone help me figure out how to address this Clock Out thing? Seems like that light should not be on.
Please help,
~Nick
