Grimm Audio’s CC1 brings an incredible clock stability to your current setup! The CC1 accepts Word Clock and distributes a super high quality Word Clock and AES/EBU sync to all equipment in your system. Now, any studio can benefit from some of the features of Grimm Audio's AD1’s unique sound quality like ultimate musical timing and stability of tone.

Grimm Audio’s extensive research into the correlation between jitter and sound quality brought to light that emotional response to music is vastly more sensitive to jitter than previously realized. Attention turned from “making jitter low” to achieving the most stable clock possible. This research turned up a surprising array of previously underestimated performance factors like power supply noise, oscillator control circuit noise and low-level crosstalk. Owing to a radically redesigned discrete crystal oscillator, clock stability betters that of even the best test equipment available.

The CC1 offers base rates of 44.1kHz and 48kHz and 1/2/4 multiples in separately selectable groups, in addition to an AES/EBU reclocker for cleaning the digital feed to your DA converter. Like all Grimm Audio products, the CC1 features striking styling and solid build quality.

PROMO:


British magazine Hi-fi World raved about the CC1 in their review for the May issue and granted it the maximum amount of 5 Globes, which is "Outstanding". Reviewer Tony Bolton used the CC1 as word clock source for a Marantz SA-7 and experienced improvements in texture, focus, definition and stereo image. He enjoyed beautiful resonance and impact of hard struck piano chords. And he felt that the whole spectrum of the sound improved with the CC1.

Grimm Audio's Video to Word Clock Converter VCC adds video-sync functionality to the CC1 or any other word clock receiving device. Although many postproduction facilities have selected word clock for all their synchronisation needs, in some cases an audio system just has to synchronize to a video source. VCC offers a convenient add-on system that takes very little space.
