For Gustard R26...which bang for the buck: DDC or LHY OCK clock?
I've been enjoying this dac for several months now. I have tried USB and COAX and now I2S.
There is a noticeable improvement in each of these inputs. I have read many of the discussions here regarding both DDC and external clocks. I am wondering which of these would give more bang for the buck. The Gustard goes very well with my tube amps.
I am considering the LHY OCK 1 or 2 for clocks and undecided for the DDC.
Anyone have experience with the Afterdark clock? I am using one with my Gustard X26 Pro and it made a nice improvement. Also I think I read on this forum that if you use an external clock connected to a DDC and connect the DDC to the DAC I2S input via an HDMI cable that you are now "clocking" the DAC and would not need a second cable from the clock to the DAC. Is this correct? |
@kereru - thanks for your take on this. I'm guessing "HF" is a forum. What forum is that? |
