In Reply to: Master/Slave Relationship posted by rps on May 15, 2005 at 12:24:14:
as I understand it, the Pro Audio uses the independent master clock , as a master, and both DAC and digital source and whatever else as the slaves. Nowhere it says that 'DAC must be a master and source must be a slave'. In master-slave relation whoever has the better clock should be a master. In the absence of information 'who got better clock', it's better not to have master-slave relationship in a first place, and this is what majority of consumer digital products do. Some semi-pro transports and DACs are designed to act as a slave to some external master clock. Of course, having the option in CD transport to act as a slave for some external clock won't hurt --- but then you won't find DACs which act as a master (well, with an exception of lessloss, of course, and may be a few more). I guess manufacturers simply assume that having the external master clock driving both DAC and transport is a PRO setup, and they don't expect a regular customer to use such a setup.
