Hello

 

Currently I have a Host server based on an MSI motherboard and an Amd Ryzen 5700 G CPU with 2 Jcat XE net card and USB powered externally by a linear power supply 

 

I am under linux Gentooplayer and Hqplayer Embedded

 

I plan to mount a Target PC with a SOTM motherboard and to put the JCAT XE net card + USB from the Host PC

 

the target PC will be under Genttooplayer + Diretta

 

the Host PC will only need another JCAT XE net card

 

that's why I'm posting on this Forum because Marcin advises against it

 

why ?

 

if I use a fiber network card, it is difficult to find one with an external power supply and Oxco clock that can compete with a JCAT net CARD XE

 

thank you for your feedback

Oxco clock is the right answer, I think. An external power supply is, for example, with Linn and/or Naim, the ultimate, in your opinion. Mine too...

With the old Linn, the power supply in the unit was enough. With Naim, it was an expansion stage.

 

With digital music, the clock is the most important thing. So a super quartz like an Oxco certainly helps. Of course, this means that all the music has to be re-tacked, unless you use an I2S connection.

 

Have a nice listen

Oxco-Uhr ist Glaube ich die richtige Antwort. Eine externe Stromversorgung ist z.B. bei Linn und/oder Naim, das Nonplusultra, Ihrer Meinung nach. Meine auch...

Bei den alten Linn, reichte das Netzteil im Gerät. Bei Naim, war das dann eine Erweiterungsstufe.

 

Bei digitaler Musik ist die Clock das wichtigste. Also ein Super Quarz wie ein Oxco, hilft da bestimmt. Das heißt aber natürlich, dass die ganze Musik neu getacktet wird, außer Ihr benutzt, eine I2S Verbindung.

 

schönes hören
