Silent Angel Genesis GX Audio Master Clock

The Silent Angel Genesis GX is a reference master clock that synchronizes digital devices to a shared, high-precision time reference.

In the digital audio world, timing is everything. If every device runs its own, slightly imprecise clock, unrest creeps in. The Genesis GX is the conductor that sets the exact beat for everyone.

Why the Genesis GX?

An external master clock replaces the internal clocks of compatible devices with a significantly more precise reference.

• Four independent clock outputs: Feed several devices at once with an ultra-precise signal and bring the whole chain into harmony.
• Gold-plated TCXO modules: Work very stably and push jitter to a minimum, making instruments feel more three-dimensional.
• Separate circuits per output: Their own power supply per output prevents mutual interference and deepens spatial layering.
• Low-resonance housing: Protects the clock electronics from vibration, so the rhythm stays spot-on.

What you hear

The Genesis GX acts like bringing a blurry picture into focus. On complex jazz recordings, cymbal strikes and the vibration of strings gain a tangible reality, and paired with a Bonn NX the music loses all digital hardness and flows in an almost analog way. A tip from the workshop: don't skimp on the BNC connecting cables, so the clean signal doesn't suffer over the last few centimeters.

Who is the Genesis GX for?

The Genesis GX is a specialist and only makes sense if your source devices have a matching 10 or 25 MHz clock input, such as a Bonn NX or a Rhein Z1 Plus. Bluntly: for an entry-level system without a clock input, it's simply overkill. For a fully resolved high-end system, though, it's the key to the emotional authenticity of the music.

Our verdict

The icing, not the essential. The Genesis GX addresses the last remaining dial on an uncompromising digital chain and rewards it with naturalness and calm. Whether your devices have the necessary clock input and whether the GX makes sense for you, we'll check honestly at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil.

Frequently asked questions

Which frequencies does the Genesis GX support?

The Genesis GX offers outputs for 10 MHz and 25 MHz. This covers both classic reference standards and the specialized requirements of modern audio switches and servers that have a 25 MHz clock input.

Do I need a separate cable for each output?

Yes. Every device you want to clock needs a direct connection to the Genesis GX via a suitable BNC cable with the correct impedance. Cable quality is sonically decisive here, so we advise you on the choice.

Can the Genesis GX be improved with an external power supply?

The internal power supply already operates at reference level. For the last nuances, the GX additionally offers a DC input, through which a linear power supply like the Forester F2 can raise calm even further.

Why buy the Genesis GX at HD Zürisee?

Because a master clock only works in the right environment, and if planned wrong stays an expensive still life. In Wädenswil we check your devices' clock inputs, plan the cabling and set up the clocked chain cleanly with our own technician.

Goes well with

The Genesis GX synchronizes a clocked chain. Combine it with a switch and server from the world of Silent Angel, find matching music servers, and add clean power via the Network category.
