dCS Puccini U-Clock Master Clock and USB Interface

Please note that we are an authorized dCS dealer and this item was taken in on trade. As such we can offer it with a full warranty provided by dCS Americas under their Certified Pre-Owned program. Unlike other dCS components on Audiogon with this one you can trust that you'll receive support and any future software updates without any hassle.

While the dCS Puccini SACD player is excellent in its own right the addition of the U-Clock takes performance to another level. dCS has proven time and time again that a high-quality clock signal is one of the most critical aspects of digital reproduction. While the Puccini SACD player employs an excellent internal clock the U-Clock is even more accurate and provides the added benefit of moving the noisy clock circuit away from the DAC so as to reduce interference and distortion.

In addition to providing a stable clock reference the U-Clock also includes a USB input which allows the Puccini SACD player to interface with a USB-equipped music server or a computer-based source. This arrangement allows the U-Clock to serve as the master clock for the attached USB device and has the added benefit of separating the noisy USB circuitry from the DAC.

This U-Clock is the latest version and includes support for 24/192 PCM as well as DSD via the USB input.

We have a matching Puccini SACD Player available. Please see our other listings. If you are interested in both pieces please contact us for a package price.

Condition

There are a few nicks on the leading edge of the faceplate as well as a skuff on the top plate. These are visible, but minor and hardly noticeable at a distance. Functionally the unit is perfect.

This item will ship in its original packaging and will include all original documentation and accessories.
