Looking for Better Jitter Reduction in a DAC
I'm quite interested in what the LPS-1 does for your system. The LPS-1 is a definite improvement over the iPower supplied with the SPDIF Purifier. Bass is fuller, tighter and extended. Highs are extended and clean, not searing! Voices are natura...

lowrider57,iFi provides an adaptor cable that the iPower plugs into and the LPS-1is a perfect fit. BTW the LPS-1 takes the SPDIF Purifier to a higher level and IMHO is well worth the cost!   Chris

"An Ayre Codex has become available, but I don’t know about using all optical. I don’t even know if there are any reclockers for optical."The iFi will do optical with an included adapter.

I'm using a PSA PWT Coaxial out to an iFi SPDIF iPurifier ($150.00 Music Direct 60 day return policy) with excellent results! It sound good out of the box. After 200 hours of run in it has really hit its stride. Better instrument separation, imagi...
