Wyred4Sound - Do clocks age?


Reading a recent review of the wyred4Sound Remedy over at 6moons (gods, is there any site harder to read or understand?) they seemed to say that perhaps digital clocks in sources and DACs age.

I remember reading some truth to this with some of the higher end clocks aging relatively quickly compared to lesser clocks.  I'm wondering if anyone has a source or measurements for this?

Does this mean we'll need to purchase a re-clocker every 5 years to keep our DACs sounding at their best?

Best,

Erik

It goes without saying that even recent, advanced clocks on systems moving at very high speeds will run a little slower than older design clocks on systems that are stationary relative to the moving system, thus making the advanced clocks age more slowly.  ;-)

Which is why I always drive fast! :)

Finally! Someone said something that makes sense.
