Lina Master Clock
Ultimate precision for your audio: dCS Lina Master Clock delivers perfect timing, reduced jitter and even deeper musical immersion.
dCS Lina Master Clock – Precision for Every Note
- Dual crystal oscillators (44.1kHz & 48kHz) for precise clocking of all audio formats and frequencies
- Standalone chassis and dedicated electronics minimise risk of interference
- Oven-controlled oscillators guarantee stable, consistent performance
- Minimises jitter and enhances sound quality for streaming and USB playback
- Delivers clock signal accurate to > +/-1 ppm
- Proprietary clocking technology refined over 30 years for unrivalled precision and longevity
35 Years of Clocking Expertise
The dCS Lina Master Clock embodies decades of research and uncompromising engineering in digital audio. Drawing on 35 years of experience building master clocks for professional and home use, it brings renowned dCS precision and sound quality to the Lina system.
Two separate crystal oscillators (44.1kHz & 48kHz) provide a precise clock reference for every audio format. When paired with the Lina Network DAC, the DAC’s internal clock can be locked to this external signal – for ultimate accuracy, lower jitter, and heightened musical expression.
Standalone Design for Maximum Purity
The standalone chassis, dedicated power supply and isolated electronics protect the sensitive clocking circuitry from crosstalk, interference and power fluctuations. Oven-controlled oscillators keep clock frequencies stable – whatever the environmental conditions.
Audible Impact for Any System
Testing and listening confirm: a dCS Master Clock improves resolution, timing, imaging and musical flow – whether streaming or using USB sources. The system gains focus, dynamics and musicality. Especially with the Lina DAC and Headphone Amplifier, the result is an even deeper, more natural musical experience.
Effortless Elegance, Crafted for Perfection
The Lina Master Clock is silent and unobtrusive in operation and design. Simply switch on – and enjoy a new level of musical immersion. Like all dCS products, it is hand-assembled and tested in Cambridgeshire, England by expert technicians, for unmatched reliability and sonic performance year after year.
