Mutec - REF10 - 10MHz Reference Master Clock
Embark on a journey to the pinnacle of audio precision with the MUTEC REF10, a 10MHz reference master clock born from uncompromising engineering and a pursuit of audio perfection. The REF10 is a masterpiece, combining the expertise of Germany's renowned RF engineers with the meticulous feedback from audiophile beta testers, resulting in a product that transcends the boundaries of digital audio excellence.
"At what price point should audiophile digital become impervious to external reclockers? From our hardware, even the €9000 COS Engineering D1 wasn’t. I wish it were different. But until it actually is, external reclocking by way of MUTEC’s MC‑3+USB and REF10 remains a legitimate audibly effective solution."

In the pursuit of perfection, MUTEC redefines clock stability with the REF10. Unlike traditional atomic clocks, the REF10 is centered around MUTEC's handcrafted oven-controlled oscillator (OCXO), providing unparalleled stability in the time domain crucial for audiophile digital audio performance. Its exceptional design features a dual linear power supply, dedicated transformer winding, and ultra-low noise clock distribution circuits, culminating in an incredibly low noise figure and superior oscillator performance. The high slew-rate, lowest ripple square wave signal of the REF10 ensures superior lock precision and minimized jitter, elevating the performance of connected devices such as DACs and audio clocks.
Shielded from RF interference in a robust steel enclosure, the REF10 prioritizes functionality over an esoteric appearance, ensuring optimal shielding characteristics. With galvanically isolated output stages and individual BNC reference clock outputs that can be switched off, the REF10 minimizes susceptibility to hum caused by ground loops, further enhancing its performance. This clock reigns supreme as the most flexible and compatible 10MHz clock on the market, seamlessly integrating with MUTEC's 10MHz ready products and third-party devices alike. The REF10 not only defines a new standard in clock technology but also affords you more time to revel in the blissful playback it unlocks for your audio system.
