Stemming from our highly successful Sonos Connect modifications, we are pleased to introduce a uniquely revolutionary product, the Remedy reclocker. This highly advanced digital reclocking device removes digital errors and drastically improves jitter utilizing an incredible Femto-grade clock. Pair the Remedy with the DAC of your choice and transform your favorite consumer digital source into a truly audiophile-worthy component!

Typical Remedy installation into your system:

Digital source (TV, CD, Streamer, etc) >> Remedy >> DAC

**additional performance upgrade if used with the DC Recovery**

Recommended applications include: Sonos Connect, Apple TV & Airport Express, Squeezebox Duet & Touch, iPod docks and many more!

The SPDIF output's sample rate is factory configured to 96kHz. Some DACs can miss-read the status bits for the proper resolution when outputting the signal at 96kHz causing problems with playback; for example displaying the incorrect resolution. If a Wyred 4 Sound DAC is being used then the 96kHz will work properly. For compatibility we can set the output to 44.1, 48, 88.2, or 96kHz. If your DAC is only capable of a lower resolution please let us know to set the Remedy to the proper resolution. Please add this request to the comments section on the order form.

The short answer is yes, as the two clocks do different things. For the complete answer, click here.

Good choice

Saw a review on reclockers by Ed on Old Guy HiFi. The Remedy Recocker caught my attention esp. when I understood what they do. Anyway, I thought it wound marry very nicely with my Liv Harmony Dac and boy did it. All the improvements that Ed described were fully realized with my system. I'm very pleased and my wife knows how difficult I can be when it comes to judging the sound I'm hearing.

Didn’t Deliver

I added the Remedy as recommended on the website to improve my streaming Apple Music to AirPort Express to my Aries II DAC to my Creek Evolution intergraded amp sound. Unfortunately the only thing that improved was line noise that wasn’t there before. In researching this issue the fix will require an expensive linear power supply.
It’s not the silver bullet I was hoping for based on all the YouTube reviews.

Sorry to hear Dan, The Remedy does wonders in addressing what it is designed for.

Not sure what is happening in your system but things to check would be the use of digital coax cables or quality optical cables. Not saying you are doing this but sometimes customers dont realize there is a big difference between analog RCA cables and Digital Coax cables even though they use the same looking connectors. Some analog cables can work but have dropouts or create a noisy signal because they arent designed for digital audio (75ohm path).

It could also be that the Aries Dac is calculating filters or processing data based on the status bits within the digital stream rather than reading the actual signal. If you play a 44.1k track, the status bits in the stream will list 44.1k but the remedy will reclock and send 96k. This is what the note is about compatabilty with some dacs. We've only seen this with a few in the past but it is possible. If you can play and send a 96k track through the airport express, you can test for this.

At any-rate, sorry it didn't work out and wish we had the opportunity to explore why but if you are looking for a reasonably priced solution to an expensive linear supply, the DC Recovery is a great option.

If you would like to troubleshoot this more, please reach out to support@wyred4sound.com. Thank you.

USB inout

Would be nice to have a usb input, crucial in a lot of audio chains

Thank you for your review Alessandro, please note that we do have USB functionality you mention in the µLINK and µLINK-2 units :-) The Remedy was designed to be SPDIF in/out

96kHz Remedy Reclocker with DC Recovery

Purchased the pair a few months ago - vast improvements in streaming using Tidal with my DAC, lowering of the noise floor and overall presentation and dynamics!

Remedy

Used in combination with DC Recovery for an Internet radio. Noticeable sound improvement.
