Welcome Sierra

Damn good questions. There is never a right answer.

There are many good things with the Leo Bodnar clock:

A few here have tried it and attest to its quality, and step up in their system.
It seems to pair very well with the R26.
The price is excellent.
You can't go wrong with it.

Edit: I would get a clock, but my DDC runs well without one.

I tried an LHY and wasn't impressed.

Thanks John.
My post didn't come out how I was meaning.

Thank you to everyone for their feedback - much appreciated.

Indeed, the LB is a low cost option and I can return easily if it makes no difference.

Couple more questions please, if I may. I think I'll dip my toes in the water with the LB but:

1. Which BNC cable do you folks recommend, please?
2. Where are your GPS antennas placed? Outdoors, inside near a window etc?

Haven't tried every dac or clock combo just not possible, however the R26 imho and through some fairly rigorious testing it sound much more cohesive and fluid with a Square wave clock. I have tried it with one or two clocks ranging from £180-£88K (a recent purchase ceasium reference) and it sounds in that just right pocket with a SW.

System dependancy as always, but I did stick the R26 in a rather spiffing system and it didn't disgrace itself at all.

My GPS aerial is placed outside my window
I am also using Multiflex 141 cable
I had a few cables in my system and all sound different

Well Gents, I just installed the Leo Bodnar clock into my system for the first time, I only have an old 50ohm 1.5m cable from way back when BNC-BNC cables were used for networking...... yes remember that..... Still awaiting delivery of the RG-402 short length interconnects so I can try connecting directly to the motherboard of the R26.
PSU used is an Allo SMPS 5v, so nothing at all special, I will of course try a LPS too later.

Anyway, I must say it's a nicely made piece of kit with machined engraved legends on each end, a touch of quality. I used the Mac app on my MacBook to configure and everything is there, including the sleep function button, once you have a GPS signal locked on and set the 10Mhz clock (default). I used the recommended Drive: 16mA and Bandwidth: 9 settings. The Mac app even has a graphic showing where you are on Google Earth and a graph of signal strength.... slick.  I placed the unit into sleep mode straight away as this reaps the best results according to this thread. 

Sound....... I've never come across an upgrade that completely alters the presentation of a system like this does, it is not subtle.

Everything now seems to have time to be heard or is that timing to be heard!

There is much more depth and width to the soundstage it's all around you. There is more impact as if your power amps have been uprated.
There is a level of detail and threads of sound that makes the music sound just right. Taking the clock out, to compare, makes things mush together and you loose so much. I'm only on my 16-17th track and the system isn't fully warmed up yet. I know that the clock cable from the Gustard R26 to the LB clock can be much improved so I'm reallllly looking forward to that little journey.

Well impressed..... thank you everyone involved in getting this gem known about and into audiophile circles for 'much' more music enjoyment.

I've had a few more hours with the system and the clock does benefit from a better PSU, using Allo Shanti LPS (1A feed). Also the LB benefits from mechanical energy management, it's susceptible to micro vibrations so using carbon fibre feet or your favourite type should reap dividends, failing that use a small weight on top but with hard feet as opposed to the soft compliant silicon feet that are supplied, they just trap the energy within. 

One final edit after getting used to the tweaks (no 'proper' 50ohm cable yet)

I think I realise what this LB does now, it makes things sound more analogue, I know that's overused as a description but the sound really does remind me of a really good turntable, RMS Genesis or Voyd multi motor design with great LPS's where timing was the thing giving superb dynamics.  This £160 Leo Bodnar clock with a decent LPS transforms the Gustard R26 into state of the art vinyl!!  Maybe a bit much.... but it is transformative. The system has more 'pop' and depth now too.

Nice write up, same findings as myself (x26pro)
Enjoy

Thanks for the info palace, very interesting, let me check where I got the 6N2P's from I think it was somewhere in Croatia, can't remember the type only that they were all tested and marked with labels, military spec.  I ordered 16 but out of those only four really matched up for the preamp.  

rodders, your words makes me more anxious to implement R26+LBin my system. Since I read the John´s advices abouth this I´m in chase.
Here in Brazil is all more difficult. I purchased a LB unit in US eBay but the brazilian customs don't´ released the shipment. But I will not give up!

Cheers.

Edit: "makes me more anxious"
