dCS Lina Master Clock (Silver Finish)

The Lina Master Clock is informed by dCS' extensive experience of developing master clocks for professional and home use. Their research has shown us that adding a dedicated master clock to an audio system can enhance all aspects of sound, from detail and imaging to rhythmic movement and flow.

The Lina Master Clock utilises dual crystal oscillators and proprietary dCS clocking technologies to deliver a precise and stable clocking reference for all audio formats and frequencies. Paired with the dCS Lina Network DAC, Bartók DAC or Bartók Headphone DAC, it provides an even more immersive and engaging experience.

• Oven-controlled crystal oscillators (one for 44.1kHz based audio sample rates and one for 48kHz) ensure accurate clocking for all audio samples and frequencies
• Allows Lina Network DAC to be locked to a single master signal for enhanced audio performance
• Minimises risk of jitter and timing irregularities which can affect playback
• Provides a significant increase in sound quality when streaming or listening via USB
• Standalone design with isolated chassis and power supply protects clock signal from external interference
