So, what I use Pacific in DD mode then Pacific and Lynx run digital circular reference and this mode does not make any sense to me, unless I do specific DD task, that I practically never do.

Yes, I see your dilemma. Sorry, nothing springs to mind... other than becoming more adept at swapping the AES cables to the Lynx.

BTW, I agree with your ideas for a future Model Three. But would auto sample rate adjustment be possible if you're slaving the PC interface to the DAC? (Of course, this becomes academic if the Model Three were to have a properly implemented USB or firewire input...) For now though, I really find changing sample rates with the Model Two fairly easy... once the necessary presets have been configured correctly.

What I'm having more difficulty with is playing 176.4/192KHz sample rate files with the Model Two in Master mode. The Model Two can only output a clock at 1x or 2x 44.1KHz or 48KHz. My AFI1 cannot double the clock frequency to match the sample rate. So, at these sample rates, I cannot use the Model Two in Master mode, which is the only mode I can live with. Daniel Weiss thought he might have a solution, but hasn't got back to me in a while.

Any ideas?

Mani.
