I will look into that , thanksI have a K-01xs with the esoteric g-01x clock. The improvement is not subtle and akin to putting everything in sharper focus. I cannot comment in any other make of external clock, sorry.
hope this helps

Was it a big difference ? Worth the investment ?I have a K-01xs with the esoteric g-01x clock. The improvement is not subtle and akin to putting everything in sharper focus. I cannot comment in any other make of external clock, sorry.

Thanks , I already bought the clock and it did make a improvement but if I knew the degree of the improvement before hand I would of kept my money the % of the improvement wasn’t worth the cost to me .My personal impression resulting from experience with different Esoteric players/DACs as D02X and K01XS and N-01 with many different clocks was always and reproducible so, that the external clock was a huge improvement. And each clock S/N upgrade was easily recognizable.
But with the exchange from my N-01 to the new N-01XD, the former huge benefit with the external clock was now less evident.
So obviously the Esoteric DACs with all the different AK chips bettered a lot with external clocks.
But now, the new generation with the Esoteric discrete DAC, while being much better in comparison to any Esoteric AK-chip based DAC if they both are without the 10 Mhz clock, can not profit in the same huge degree from the additional 10 Mhz clock.
To the question from Rau:
You can easily be happy with your great K-01XD without a clock, and if you want to buy one, be prepared that the improvement will be there, but not so huge.
