Clock and DAC - which one should be on top of the other?

Well I falsely stated earlier that I’m more open minded than most people on tech forums. And then this discussion comes up! The Universe!

That may be fine for a 44.1 kHz pulse but should the incline be increased for higher rates?

I am also worried about the clock sending its electrons to my DAC. Will I need to send the clock back to be re-electroned at some point?

I think you’ll find the clocks are sent from factory with enough electrons to run for at least 50 years, I wouldn’t worry.

Plus they can go back through the power line in the form of noise.

The scientifically not explainable part is not which one should be on top and why but what made Brian give in.
Yes! primarily peer pressure I guess. But here is another factor for which I stand almost alone (although maybe there is enough iinterest in tis topic for a new thread), and that is I remain different to others in my love for switched mode power supplies - if done properly. My Chord amplification is fairly powerful (480W Monoblocs), light weight with no hum. Also true for the Chord 5 Channel amplifier. How different to the Theta Dreadnaught that I used to own.
