RE: Not hard at all-just theory

Yes, theory says one thing. In practice, though, I have not found clocking to be particularly effective in raising the quality of sound over relocked spdif/aes. The problem seems to be that clocking is just as susceptible to cable and connector type as other interfaces (so is I2S). External clocking produces a different sound; not necessarilly better. Many clocks that claim to be superior are actually not that great; hence these ultra expensive ones which I don't want to have to pay for.

I am talking about using 6 or seven clocks and clocking schemes involving dCS, Apogee, Lynx and others. In fact, clocking the Lynx AES 16 is nothing but trouble.
