Esoteric's G-03x Master Clock Generator


Hi guys,

Anyone here by chance tried these on their esoteric cd player ?

is it worth paying $4,000 fr this device ?

What improvements can be brought about with this unit ?

Thinking of this for use with the X-03 SE in the future.

Does high quality BNC digital cable make an audible difference ?

Thanks for inputs.

The clock accuracy of the D-5 is +/- 3ppm, when the unit is new. The G-03x is 0.1ppm and that means that it is 30 times more accurate. I decided to get the G-0Rb (rubidium) which is accurate to 0.05 ppb which is about 2000 times more accurate than the G-03x and, if my math is correct, 60,000 times more accurate than the clock in the D-5. I will post after the clock is broken in. The reviews I have read make me comfortable with my decision.
I purchased the G-ORb clock about a month ago to go with my Esoteric P5/D5. This clock makes a huge improvement in the clarity and musicality. This clock costs as much as the P5 and D5 and I am very pleased with it so for me it is worth the cost. I have never listened to the less expensive clock so I can't comment on it. If the clock has nothing to do with jitter then wny does it improve the quality of the sound so much?
