I do not know how this pacific devise I am bit prejudicial about all of those in-line re-clocking devises. I have seen tone of them in past and all of them were incredible crap. Well, if one has a bad performing playback with objectively shitty (even highly regarded) ingredients then using those digital improving toys might send a message that something got better. In reality it is frequently not better but different and since system owners are generally uninformed then they can not differentiate an improvement from peripherally different irrelevance.

I do not know what Empirical devise is made for. Empirical made name by providing modification for those Chinese Parasound bid amplifiers, I think they were called Halo. They were incredible crap and they fact that Empirical dealt with them is an indication that Empirical is very willing to deal with low demand, low result and high on scam audio entireties. So, I would not be surprised if the new Synchro-Mesh toy would be a devise that would be able to demonstrate to the a few idiots from Audio Asylem – the target market for Parasound Halo.

The larger point of my comments is that a properly implemented transport, DAC or played does not need any re-clocking improvements, nor might be improved by a virtue of reclosing. The very same is in analog audio. There were zillion of analog devises from parametric EQ to quantum penetrators that audio companied suggested to plug between preamps and power amps to make “the difference it makes is rather astonishing. As soon one get a truly capable preamp and good power amp then all those inline toys go directly into garbage.
