Did you try to slave the cMP directly to the Scarlatti DAC since the Scarlatti DAC also has an word clock output?


Nope. It only offers 44.1k and for 96k, 48k is needed. I could try it with 88.2 (not my preference though).

There is a thread on the Slim Devices forum about slaving the Transporter to an external DAC and from the discussion it seems it's better to use the DAC as Master, thus running from its internal clock and send that clock to the slaved source, than to slave both the source and the DAC to an external master clock like the Scarlatti unit.


dCS regards the Clock superior to the DAC's clock out. Best is to try it and compare. Galvanic isolation would still be lost in this case. There are glass/toslink clock implementions.

Any specific jitter measures for SD's Transporter approach? There would be good sonic improvements with this approach - my view is there's more to be had by also treating other DAC inputs.
