    I don't think it's correct to label it as totally snake oil.

    It's using VCXO to reclock spdif data from the transport. It might be useful for high jitter devices with less than ideal clocks(think Apple TV or most mass produced consumer grade Bluray/DVD/CD transports).

    I think Schiit DACs also has this kind of reclocking tech implemented inside.
