Located 60 miles north of London England, dCS (Data Conversion Systems) began in 1987 as a group of electronic engineers specializing in the fields of ADC and DAC. Maintaining a track record of "World Firsts" (about 1 per year), dCS leads the way in AD, DA and DD conversion. Their reputation for technical excellence and innovation has made them the leading converter design company in Europe and the first choice of discerning audiophiles worldwide.

dCS Verona
Master Clock
Calibrated to better
than1 part per million accuracy synchronize up to 5 units with (BNC)
word clock interfaces Standard clocking frequencies: 44.1 or 48kHz
Works with all dCS consumer products fitted with word clock input. How can something as simple as a clock make that big of
a difference? dCS claims that's a trade secret, and won't give
all the details.
