How important is the digital cable between the player and your clock ?


I understand the importance of cables in a system.....but generally speaking, is the cable between a cd / scad player and an external clock an important link ? I will assume the answer is yes.....but how and why ? I would like to hear from enthusiasts who own especially own Esoteric gear with clocks. I am looking to upgrade this cable and was questioning on what sonic impact this cable would have the overall sound. Thank you in advance.

In a word yes, it matters tremendously. I need 3 such BNC 75 ohm cables in my DCS Paganini stack and upgrading to Transparent Reference XL made a big difference. Previously I had used AudioQuest Eagle eye. At nearly $3k a cable this is not cheap but most regard this transparent series as top of the heap on digital interconnects

also the power cord to the clock makes a big difference if you haven't already upgraded that
