Quick qn re DI-20HE - how can I tell what the Ext clock input impedance is 75/50ohms etc and does it take square or sine or both? I ask as I tried to use one of my spare ports on the OCK-2 (square + 75ohm I believe) to the DI-20HE but it said FAIL or similar error message when I tried to switch to external. Might have been a cable issue too I guess, only tried briefly with that one.

It takes both but native square😎

That one is 10Mhz 50Ohm

This one is 10Mhz 75Ohm

I made the red cross indication: DO NOT USE👍

Yes it occurred to me after I might’ve accidentally plugged it into the wrong one.. was battling with one of those heavy garden hose like LMR400 cables. Will try again tomorrow.

For now I’m just about to dial up the Phoenix incl feeding the DI-20HE with it which is what Brett plans to do with it I understand, such decadent overkill but then I’m just envious! 😅

As you would expect, I'm interested in the Phoenix to the DI-20HE.

Yes, but Phoenix has USB output, DI20HE not.
No worries DAC has USB in.

I2S/AES/SPDIF vs USB

Even a Master clock can be added😅👍

I am personally interested to know how a typical $50 high-speed isolated hub is working with DI-2x. I mean, if I get a hub first, it will be wasted after purchasing DI-24 or not.

I read from @Jake2 that UIP (which is expensive stuff) is not a replacement for DI-24HE and chaining UIP is beneficial. $50 hub is expected to share the same properties, question is about scale of the improvement.
