"Best" clock upgrade

[Nounours18200]

Hi,

There are many clock upgrades available : Trichord clock 4 with NC Power Supply, Tentlabs XO3, Dexia, etc....

What is the best in your opinion ? (not interested by the external master clocks)

Thank you very much for your feedback,

Certainly, you can add Pulsar clock from Italy, to the list of "the best".
Also Audiofidelity clocks from UK.

Best is lowest jitter @ 10 Hz and up to to 100 kHz. Just compare their specs.

Unfortunately, the specs are not given... this is the reason I need a few advices from members...

Replace the original "clock"-caps with glimmer or polystyrene.
Remove ground-loops on board - if existing.

You can add to your list the PFM Flea which is a top PSU for the Tentlabs' XOs. Mind if you need 5V or 3.3V clock signal.
A kit is sold by Ray:
Ray's Audio Page

You can find some specs here and see how great is Tent's XO:
33.8688 MHz Oscillator: Discrete Choice | H i F i D U I N O

For a cheaper alternative the AudioGD's clock was nice but do not know if still sold.

The pulsar is pretty much 'it'. Or the neutronstar2. But both are spendy.

Beyond a certain minimum, they are all exquisitely sensitive to implementation. This makes a much bigger difference than how much you spent on it (or whether it was any good in the first place). Don't throw money at a problem you can't describe/ quantify for yourself.

I did it with the neutron star 2.
Upgrade (very old lady) drive Teac P2 with Neutron star 2 ...
Plug (solder) & play .... It's (better) music ... I like it.
