The dCS Verona is a consumer version of the dCS 992 and 995 professional
Master Clocks.
Master Clocks.
The Verona generates very stable clocks at either 44.1 or 48kHz, accurate to
better than 1 part per million. The usual application is synchronising the units in
SACD / CD systems, where a 44.1kHz Word Clock is used throughout. The
improved synchronisation and stability offered by the Verona enhances the
sound quality, extracting more depth and detail from high quality recordings.

Most customers use the Verona with a set of dCS equipment, however the
Verona may be used with any transport or other digital source that will accept a
44.1 or 48kHz reference clock in either Word Clock or SPDIF clock formats.

Verona features an External Reference Input, allowing the Master Clock to be
slaved to a even more accurate reference, such as a GPS receiver or an atomic
clock, if desired. The Verona will convert a variety of audio sample rates or
standard frequencies to either of the two clock frequencies, cleaning the
reference signals in the process.

In common with all dCS converters, the Verona is based on our flexible digital
audio platform which makes extensive use of software configurable chips –
FPGA’s and DSP’s. This allows the internal software to be updated from time to
time, either from a dCS CD or from a PC, adding extra features and facilities to
your system with a minimum of fuss.
