Rubidium clocks don't necessarily improve sound because most of them don't improve short term accuracy.

Any of the external master clock options cost money so if you want to jump in, make sure you can try for a while first.
+1 ! I also only started to wonder after getting the dCS clock - but it is indeed a subject with very few folks having the experience for these things it would seems. I know when I started to ask about a reference clock to my dealer he was looking funny to me: what do you mean I just sold you a clock!
