I'm happy to try anything! I think the interesting thing will be on how it works specifically with a Devialet amp, or even more specifically, between an otherwise relatively "low fi" source and a Devialet. Plus, picking up on Hrky's point, I too am a bit of a purist and dislike the idea adding things in the audio chain, so if I find that the thing doesn't perform with a Devialet, that is what I'll report.

But then again, you may be right that it is useless and one additional walmart PS is not good, too. And I believe DAR has reviewed it that it may not be much enhancement to "higher"-end components. Anyway, we will await for Confused's report.

And, output can be Coax, toslink or BNC. Wyred4Sound Remedy Reclocker - nkbg - 23-Oct-2015 I've been using one with a LPS to reclock the Apple TV output. Makes an appreciable difference when watching movies and TV.

IMHO, Hrky Maybe not. However, I don't think this is about getting the ultimate sound quality from a Devialet. For that use AIR. a dedicated streamer via AES/EBU or whatever. However, sometimes I do use the Devialet fed via toslink direct from my TV. Unfortunately my TV does not have AES/EBU or SPDIF output, not many do. So I think the reclocker is all about making the most of "second line" sources. RE: Wyred4Sound Remedy Reclocker - Manoet - 23-Oct-2015 An area that exists for the reclocker is one I don't believe anyone here has mentioned is for use with the Sonos ZP/80, 90 or Connect. It allows streaming from all the usual suspects with results that are indistinguishable from the more expensive 96k modified Sonos. I have an 9yr old Sonos ZP90 that was modified by Cullen Circuits before they became Wyred 4 Sound a few years back. This summer I purchased a new 96k Connect from W4S just after the D200 to keep as a backup in the event my old ZP90 is on borrowed time since its almost 10 years old. Years ago I gave one of my unmodified ZP90's to my oldest son who now uses it with a Remedy Reclocker. Neither of us can hear a difference when streaming between it and the modified 96k Sonos. If you bought both pieces new they would cost $740 while the 96k Sonos would set you back $890. Of course there's the extra box & cabling to deal with when using the RR but SQ remains identical between the two systems. My son doesn't have the budget I do so its a great option for him. And since the 96k Sonos is the only thing I stream from using Deezer Elite with no plans of future changes I'm content as is. Of course the Sonos software to me today is both familiar, bullet-proof and all I need in the sand lot I play in. An additional benefit of note is that when I tried the RR with my 96k Sonos there was a marked improvement! On sound alone I would buy it in a heartbeat. Only reason I haven't is the "here-we-go-again" melee with boxes, cords, cables et al. I'm too smitten by the wall-mount Devialet and complete absence of all that other crap. Minimalism reigns supreme round these parts of late.

Does RR really makes a huge difference for Sonos Connect? RE: Wyred4Sound Remedy Reclocker - Manoet - 23-Oct-2015 If you can live with the additional box, cords, cabling etc its virtually identical to the 96k Sonos ZP90/Connect. Add it to a previously modified 96k Sonos and its even better! But its a difficult chaos from which to make order on my desktop. There could come a day if I were to tastefully hide the additional clutter out-of-sight... just not today. |
