Time clock sync devices


Hello,

I would like to ask if anyone has experience with time clock synch devices and if it is worthwhile to buy such a device to complement digital music.  Thank you very much for your time.

@thanasakis Hi, A master clock is one of the most important contributions to hi-end digital sound quality. However, clocks are very sensitive and they need (expensive) quality clock cables, power cables and power supplies to reveal their full potential.

A good clock will sound like a major component upgrade.

It might help to know what you're planning to use it with.  In my case, it was a complete waste of money as the device I used it with already had an excellent internal clock.

Master clocks are most often used to synchronize multiple devices in a studio environment. 

Read up on them a little.  Here's a short high-level overview 

 

@big_greg thank you for your answer. I recently bought a CEC transport (TL 2N) and I am planning to sync it to my dac (CH PRECISION C1), which can accept a clock sync board. I must admit that it sounds wonderfully as it is! I don’t know if it is worth buying the sync board plus a digital cable!
