I was reading 'Mastering Audio by Bob Katz', and he makes the point that the PLL circuitry in our equipment is generally a poor second cousin to the amount of effor that is put into the rest of it. His suggestion for digital inputs is to also provide a word clock, because this being (I presume) a standard square wave its easier to detect and lock onto than trying to determine the start of the signal from the digital data input.
Has anyone tried this both ways? Or other opinions?
