Redefining the Art of Timing
The dCS Vivaldi range represents the pinnacle of digital engineering – a ‘no compromise’ pursuit of musical truth. The Vivaldi Master Clock is a cornerstone of this achievement: a powerful yet elegant Grade 1 master clock that brings exceptional accuracy, stability, and refinement to your system.
Timing lies at the heart of digital audio. Even minute fluctuations, known as jitter, can disrupt the timing of samples and distort the reconstructed analogue signal. The Vivaldi Master Clock eliminates these inaccuracies, ensuring every musical moment is rendered with flawless coherence and realism.
Engineering Excellence
Drawing on decades of studio-grade clocking expertise, dCS has refined its external clock technology to world-leading levels of precision. The Vivaldi Master Clock features two independent banks of clock outputs, each capable of operating at different frequencies, allowing seamless synchronisation of multiple digital components.
Every crystal oscillator used within the unit is pre-aged, calibrated, and selected for long-term stability, with individual tuning across a wide temperature range. This ensures consistent, drift-free performance over time – far surpassing even oven-controlled or atomic clock alternatives.
The sophisticated multi-stage Phase-Locked-Loop (PLL) system sets the global benchmark for jitter reduction, maintaining signal integrity even when slaved to external references such as atomic clocks or GPS synchronisation sources.
