I have read papers where asynchronous reclocking in a DAC actually adds jitter. So I don't buy the "this DAC is immune to jitter" line. With anything in the audio chain there is a good budget solution except a low jitter SDIF source. There are few recommendations. Most info on CDP's center on the analog outs not the digital ones.
I love the NOS DAC sound so I am stuck looking for a low jitter source, but I have been unable to much info. I keep hearing the Phillips DVP642? is great but I am not buying that a DVD player would have low jitter with their clock frequency and PLL just to get 44.1k.
I looked into the CDPROM transport unit but the only company selling kits anymore is in europe and the cost is high.
I have looked at upgrading a clock in a budget CDP, but again there is very little hard evidence that this actually reduces jitter.
I guess I am getting frustrated with the lack of info. Why hasn't someone taken jitter measurements and reported to the masses?
