TEAC CG-10M-A/B Master Clock Generator

The CG-10M is a master clock generator that provides an extremely accurate clock signal, allowing digital-to-analog converters (DACs) to perform at their best. It is well-known among audiophiles that the clock signal is the foundation for any digital signal processing. Digital signals like PCM are divided along the time axis into tens of thousands of parts per second with extreme precision. When this fundamental timeline fluctuates during D/A conversion, it becomes much more challenging to reproduce an analog audio waveform that is identical to the original. This is especially true for DSD audio signals, which operate in the MHz range on the timeline. For this reason, having the most accurate clock signal possible is crucial for the restoration of digital audio signals, particularly for HiRes files that use ultra-high sampling rates such as DSD 22.5 MHz or PCM 768 kHz.
