Hello! you could use two outputs in parallel - for two devices. One is square, other sine wave, but for clock duty they should be both fine. Splitter with 10MHz signal maybe not the best choice due to noise and reflections, never tried that though in practice.
@@k4syx Thank you very much. So just to be sure, is the other bnc connector, labelled "1PPS" in fact for a 1MHZ (as you seem to be saying at around 0:59) rather than 10MHZ square wave signal? Hope you don't mind my asking this additional question. I already use this unit to good effect with my Gustard R26 and for me it adds more air and generally refines the sound in a most enjoyable way. But I was also thinking of connecting my Singxer SU-2 DDC, but if the square wave signal is 1MHZ, not sure that would work. BTW, I have subscribed to your channel as I find it excellent.
@@johncallaghan3097 Thank you! No, it's 10MHz, PPS refers I think to the length of the signal (meaning it's not a symmetric square wave with 50prc fill ratio but rather short pulses) You can safely try both with R26, if it is anything else that 10MHz it just won't sync and work correctly. But it will, I've checked that in my review, it was fine. On the other hand - SU2 has external clock input? Are you sure it's not word clock for aes/abu BNC data input? I have SU-6 and it doesn't have external 10MHz clock input other than word clock.
@@k4syx Thanks once again. I've checked the SU2 product description at the Shenzen site and it says: "The SU-2 is not only a USB interface, it can also be used as an independent master clock product. "1. When used as an independent master clock, it can output a word clock of 44.1K-384K, or output a master clock of 22.5792Mhz-49.152Mhz. (When not connected to USB, it will be used as the master clock device by default) " 2. When using an external 10Mhz clock input, it can also be used as a frequency converter; support 10Mhz to 44.1K-384K word clock, or output 22.5792Mhz-49.152Mhz master clock." I looked at a photo of the SU6 rear panel and although it has a more comprehensive connector array, it doesn't seem to have one like that on the extreme left of the back of the SU2 labelled "10MHZ IN". That said, the product description for the SU2 does mention "...When not connected to USB...". But in my case it IS connected to my laptop's USB port, so I see my question was irrelevant and it appears you are correct. No need or possibility to connect it to my OCXO external clock's output. The idea arose in my mind just in passing and I apologise for raising it. 🙂
A must for any Gustard R26 DAC. Highs become more defined and more air in between the notes. All other frequencies are all more precise and musical at the same time. Non stop Goosebumps! Thank you @HiFI Zone🙏
@@janwillemkuilenburg7561 A good question. Should do the same as for R26, but the effect may be less staggering (as A26 should be superior to R26 in airiness and detail areas). I recently got my hands on X26 Pro, I will try to check that next weekend as will be on business trip this week.
That's for GPS clock correction, so just choose the ones you trust to stay stable. I went for Galileo and GPS. This is just a small detail as for audio purposes we don't need date/clock sync with satellites, just the precise 10MHz will do
Hi, forgive my dumb question here! But I’m trying to understand how I/O is configured in cabling exactly? Assuming it’s in the middle, how would you implement this from your streamer to your Gustard? Thanks 🙏🏼
