I believe it, but I always thought the WHOLE REASON for getting a high end DAC and using USB with it is to take advantage of the superior clock in said DAC. Going with my Mac's clock makes me want to throw up in my mouth a little.
Another option is to use the W4S Remedy that i mentioned to you the other day, or a wide variety of other USB to SPDIF products out there. Then I can upgrade my OS and have a good quality clock. I just hate spending even more money when the DAC has the clock I wanted to use in the first place.
Even though the Recovery has a clock in it, it sounds to me like it is a "pass through" of sorts and the Mac will still "see" the Esoteric, not the Recovery, and need to use the same driver.
