RE: The Search for Theo's Clock...

This past summer I had the opportunity to listen to the Antelope Audio OCX clocking the RME Fireface 800. The FF800 has a reputation of having a pretty decent clock on it's own, but externally clocking it to the OCX was a not-so-subtle improvement in SQ. Extensive A/B was not necessary. I heard the difference in the first 10 seconds (it was that obvious). Now granted I was using the Wordclock out function of the OCX and it does indeed support 192KHz, but I understand it also has S/PDIF output. I cannot vouch for that functionality, but I can say the OCX is worth it's salt.

In Southern California there is a company that has a "try before you buy" program where you can demo the unit FREE of charge for 7 days.

I no longer have the RME at my disposal nor do I have the Juli@, otherwise I would do this myself. But maybe Theo is willing to try.
