Audiophonics did a fantastic job again with this DigiRescue Reclocker. I have the reclocker connected to a quite 'regular' 1990s Sony cd-player that has a Toslink output, and I power it with Audiophonics' 5V linear powersupply, on which I still had an unused USB 5V out. I use the "Canare by Audiophonics" digital coax cable to connect it to my DAC's s/pdif in, and a glass-based Toslink cable between the cd-player and the DigiRecue.
Before getting the Digirescue, I was not able to hear a difference between the cd-player's internal DAC and my external DAC. I am happy to report this is no longer the case now!
This device feels very well built, with metal housing and nice sturdy RCA connections. The reclocker has not only increased clarity and precision as advertised, but I can also clearly notice better dynamics and imaging. Overall, I experience more presence and enjoy my CD's more now. One thing to note in my setup, is that the bass not only gained presence, but also somehow feels significantly louder. That could/should be just due to either perceptual change as a result from better clarity and dynamics, or perhaps my smaller room size now more prominently interacting with these frequencies from the former. Either way, it's not on a level that's disturbing me but it was unanticipated and interesting.
Toslink to Coax conversion/ port choice is fully automatic, so you can tuck this small device also in difficult to reach spaces, should you want to.
The web-shopping experience has room for improvement: it is not cool that the product suddenly increased by 6 Euros in price during shopping/looking around. I wish that the advertised product price would be what you see the first time, and the web-store leaves out the marketing trickery.
