Try also with ali.
When I connect to Ali from France, I can not find your reseller.
There's another reseller that sells it for €457, while Beatchenik sells it for €449 (shipping fees to France, included).

The conversion of the price of your reseller in Rubles makes €431.

Yesterday I ordered a modified (output waveform: Square Wave x 2, Sinewave x 1)OCK-1 from Beatechnik for an additional payment of $80.
I'm a dummy… Could you explain please what's the advantage of ordering a mix of Square Wave, and Sine Wave.

Advantage? I don't know, maybe I'll need it someday. I have Audio GD DI-20HE and R-27HE, according to Kingwa, square wave is better. LHY basically offers square 1x and sine 2x, and I asked them to modify it.

Congratulations on your purchase. Will you connect the LHY simultaneously to the Audio GD DI-20HE and the R-27HE ?
The DI-20HE has a 50 ohm input and the R-27HE has a 75 ohm input.

Note that on Aliexpress import duties are already included in the price. If you buy from Beatechnik, you will probably have to pay these separately.

True this is visible on checkout. I have seen it before. But it is on product over 200 hundred dollars or something?

In Europe (EU), you have to pay only VAT until 135 euros total price of item + insurance (if any) + shipping

More than 135 total you start paying penalties, random fees, ransom etc. depending on your country.

So people can argue whether square wave clocks or sinewave clocks sound better :wink:

The DI-20HE has a 50 ohm input and the R-27HE has a 75 ohm input.

The R-27HE has a 75 ohm clock input?! I refuse to believe it...

Don't listen to anyone, get it from Ali, great LHY clock, works great.
https://aliexpress.ru/item/10050041...2.1640613639&_gac=1.258584597.1661837132.null

I cannot, anything ordered outside the EU will cost me 2X buy the time I have it in my hands...

Not that simple. F.i. the R8HE Mk2 will be 75 Ohm when you opt for the EC (external clock) option, which is user selectable via firmware. Also, the DI-20HE can be easily ordered with 75 Ohm.

Horrible, completely avoidable technochaos. I have been saying all clock connections should be 75 ohm, and now this,. And this does not help when we already have the gear. It's too heavy and risky to ship it back and forth.

I guess there's the Gustard C2 cable to the rescue if you put stock in their impedance matching claims. It certainly sounds good but is a bit spendy.
I saw the comments but I can report even using a 50 ohm DI-20 WCLK into a Brooklyn DAC+ using a standard 75 ohm clock cable works and sounds pretty much indistinguishable from the internal clock. So I wouldn't spend money on a cable like that.

Rather, I ask again- no, I demand! - that consumer hifi manufacturers reject the non-standard 50 ohm clock setups and go 75 ohm like the pro audio world has done since the 1980s...

The final price (base price + duties) is already visible/listed, provided the buyer is logged in.
Taxation depends on the buyer's country. In The Netherlands all imported goods -- regardless of price -- are taxed at 21% since last June or so. Actually after that the total cost became lower as the customs administration fee (on top of the 21%) was waived, and also faster as customs -- that used to give about 1 week delay -- are now bypassed.

Beatechnik has supplied the plot!

Awesome work Fred... looks like the official spec of -110db @ 1hz was rather conservative indeed!
