G-02X Master Clock Generator
The Esoteric G-02X is a master clock generator built around a custom high-precision oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO), designed to supply reference timing to up to eight digital audio devices simultaneously. It features an "Adaptive Zero Ground" circuit to suppress ground-voltage-induced random jitter and offers independently configurable output frequencies across its four general-purpose clock terminals plus four dedicated 10 MHz sine-wave outputs. Esoteric's official specifications page now lists the G-02X as discontinued.

- ¥470,000 excluding tax (Japan)
- Weight
- 11.3 kg / 25 lb
- Outputs
- 4x BNC CLOCK OUT (44.1/48kHz-family rates up to 768kHz plus 100kHz/10MHz, TTL/75Ω square wave); 4x BNC 10MHz sine-wave outputs (0.5±0.1Vrms/50Ω); supplies up to 8 devices total
- Dimensions
- 445mm x 107mm x 359mm / 17-5/8" x 4-1/4" x 14-1/4"
- Warm up time
- Approx. 10 minutes to oscillator stabilization
- Oscillator type
