ClockLink is a proprietary Wadiadesigned system that improves sonic performance by greatly

reducing clock jitter. In

1990,

Wadia became the first company to identify clock jitter as a

distortion in CD playback systems and we have been refining our jitter reduction technology

ever since. ClockLink is the most effective jitter reduction technology to date.

In most CD playback systems, the system master clock is located at the transport. As the clock

signal is transmitted to the digital-to-analog converter, it is contaminated with noise. This noise

results in uneven time intervals between output pulses from the DAC. This inconsistency causes

measurable and audible distortion.

With

ClockLink

the system master clock is located very close to the DAC chips in the

digital-

to-analog converter system. This simplifies the path through which the clock signal must travel,

minimizing the opportunity for jitter to contaminate the clock signal. This approach offers

lower jitter than ony previous jitter reduction method, and a

commensurate

improvement

in sonic performonce.

The Wadia 27i also uses improved clock circuitry for

non-ClockLink

sources. This circuitry results

in noticeable sonic improvements with

non-ClcokLink

digital sources.

If you are using a digital source equipped with Clocklink, such as a Wadia 270 in a Clocklink

mode, an ST-type glass fiber

cable

must be instolled between the Wadia 27i

ClockLink

Output

and your CD transport Clocklink Input.

This cable is installed as shown below.
