Features
Up to 192 kHz Word Sync clock production
With the advent of digital equipment using higher sampling
frequencies than ever, 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz word clocks
(sync signals) are made available in addition to conventional
44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz clocks.
As an additional plus, the output circuitry consists of 3
separate channels with a total of 6 output terminals, thus
offering the capability of handling a variety of audio
equipment controlled by different word clocks. Also, each of
the 3 output channels is switch-selectable between 1xFs,
2xFs, and 4xFs, so you can, for example, get an 88.2 kHz and
a 176.4 kHz machine synchronized by connecting them to the
single G-0s.
Clocks Generated by Internal High-precision
Oscillator
The G-0s uses an advanced rubidium oscillator (monthly
precision variation: projected within ±0.05ppb) that generates
astonishingly super-accurate clocks.
Ready for connection to external oscillators
It is also possible to connect external reference frequency
oscillators to the G-0s. Using this capability, you can, for
example, readily bring in a higher precision oscillator when
made available in the future.
Universal Clock Output
Some universal players use clocks different from the ones
used by CD players to process both the video and audio
signals at the same time.
The G-0s comes with a 100 kHz clock output intended for
universal players (in PAL FILM mode, the output is switched to
96 kHz). If your universal players are 100 kHz-capable, you
can control them by this high-precision clock.
PAL Film Source-capable Clock Frequencies
The PAL (European TV format) film source is a better image
quality than NTSC discs provide. However, PAL video system is
standardized at 25 frames per second while the PAL film
source discs use the rate of 24 frames per second. So, if these
discs are played back without inserting one additional frame
per second in the process of conversion, the sound pitch may
be higher than is expected. To play PAL film source material
correctly, it is necessary to reduce the play speed by 4% and
play at 24 frames per second. To meet this requirement, the
G-0s is designed to output clock frequencies of 96% of
48/96/192 kHz (i.e., 46.08/92.16/184.32 kHz).
To play PAL film source material, connect the Esoteric UX-1 or
any other Universal Player that is equipped to accept 96%
clock frequencies.
Super-rigid Chassis to Ensure
Uncompromised Sound Quality
A rigid chassis featuring a total weight of 18 kg (40 pounds)
helps to provide a stabilized platform for the clock operation.
< 5-mm thick steel base plate completely eliminates external
vibrations.
<
Triangular pinpoint feet composed of case-hardened tool
steel ensures enhanced stability against vibration.
Employs carefully selected highest quality
components
Tight-tolerance components are carefully hand-picked and
secured to the rugged chassis to support the high-precision
clock operation.
