Although the Oehlbach unit is a terrific bargain (at 1/3 the price of the Ifi) and does wonders for SQ on a USB link.

TBH I have always used USB cables which I built myself . However , the XXL didn't sound particularly good with this . I must assume then that the XXL is sensitive to the USB cables which you use with it . I'm currently using a ' cheapish ' QED cable and my system sounds excellent . Do you have any reasonably prices alternatives please .Fretless wrote: ↑Thu Apr 16, 2020 11:32 pmHave you got any special USB cables running with the XXL Masterclock ?luckyredfish wrote: ↑Thu Apr 16, 2020 9:42 pm I'm really quite taken aback at how this little box has improved my listening pleasure . Artists who I previously didn't listen to much have now become much more interesting .
Low level listening is also much improved .
I'm well pleased so far.

There's only one way to find out, buy and try. I'm sure the two cables recommended would be good and of course there is the Oehlbach cable as well.luckyredfish wrote: ↑Fri Apr 17, 2020 12:38 pmTBH I have always used USB cables which I built myself .
