Egenskaper
Our Grade 1 Master Clock uses dual crystal oscillators to deliver a precise and stable clocking reference. Used as part of a complete Lina system, it enhances all aspects of sound for an even more immersive listening experience
Allows the Lina Network DAC to be locked to a master reference signal for enhanced audio performance
Minimises jitter and irregularities that can cause distortion
About the Lina Master Clock
The Lina Master Clock is a product inspired by our absolute dedication to achieving the highest possible standards of sound reproduction.
It is informed by our experience developing master clocks for professional and home use – something we’ve been doing for over 30 years – and the feedback we’ve received from listeners and audio experts who’ve experienced significant sonic benefits after adding a dCS master clock to their system.
Designed for use with the Lina Network DAC, it uses two crystal oscillators to deliver a precise and stable clocking reference for all audio formats and frequencies. When paired with the Lina DAC, it allows the DAC’s internal clock system to be locked to a master signal for even greater precision and enhanced audio performance.
Its standalone design ensures sensitive clocking components are protected from factors that can cause interference. Each crystal oscillator is also oven-controlled to ensure its performance remains consistent, even under changing conditions and temperatures.
Designed for maximum reliability and longevity, it is a silent but powerful component engineered to operate with absolute precision and consistency, so you can experience the best possible performance from your system. Combined with the Lina Network DAC and Headphone Amplifier, it delivers an even more profound and immersive listening experience, and helps ensure the audio you hear sounds exactly as it should.

Minimises the risk of jitter and delivers a notable increase in sound quality when streaming or listening via USB
Delivers clock signal accurate to > +/-1 ppm
Uses propietary clocking technology refined over three decades, for unrivalled precision and longevity
35 years in the making
dCS pioneered the use of external master clocks in the 1980s, and we’ve been honing and refining our approach ever since. The Lina Master Clock brings together all that we’ve learned from our extensive experience developing clocks for professional and home use and our numerous innovations in the field.
Proven to inspire
Our research has shown that adding a master clock to a digital audio system can have a dramatic impact on sound. Subjective listening tests have revealed improved imaging, resolution, dynamic expression and localisation, plus a greater sense of rhythmic movement and flow. It’s for this reason that we’ve continued to advance the standard of clocking and develop dedicated master clocks for all multi-component dCS systems.
Expertly crafted
As with all dCS products, the Lina Clock is hand-assembled in Cambridgeshire, England, by our talented technicians – a highly skilled team of experts who make sure each product that leaves our factory is built to the highest possible standards. Each clock is subject to exhaustive performance tests and rigorous inspections before shipping, so you can be confident it provides the highest levels of performance and reliability.
