There are ways, and I KNOW you guys don't want to hear this, but a Big Ben would solve this problem because you can use it as a SAMPLE CLOCK distributor, when patching the AES signal from the A2D into the Big Ben (setting to receive AES clock and then passing sample clock on BNC (or AES) into the next device to be synced. |
In this case, the A2D would be the master clock and you could then distribute to spdif/AES through the Big ben. Would this yield any improvement in sound? Would the big ben "clean up" the API clock (supposedly it's pretty good already)? Seems like an expensive workaround - for the cost of an A2D and big ben you might as well get a high end AD converter....
