With all the benifits of slaving your transport to your DAC, I thought of a cheap way to do this. Since the MCLK of the CS1814 isn't used on the DAC-AH could you use this output to replace the oscillator of a 11.28GHZ CD Player.
Less Loss Audio claims huge jitter reduction by running your treansport as a slave. This would cost basically nothing for those of us with the DAC-AH or other non-reclocking CS1814 NOS DAC's.

Interesting. Unless I am mistaken the DAC-AH has no onboard oscillator. If you remove the oscillator in the transport, where will the oscillations come from?
Who cares about oscillators; the prime impetus of this forum is the elimination of jitter. That's why regal's idea is so ingenious. No oscillator = no jitter. Brilliant!

And that's when the DAC-AH is at it's best. That DAC sounds worse than any AC97 CODEC I've ever heard.

What about a different DAC with an oscillator, is the MCLK out of the CS1814 worth while to drive a slave transport?
