Usually, when big name brand gear is inexpensive, it's because frankly the gear sucks. Black Lion Audio's MicroClock refuses to follow that schematic as Matt Newport explains. Though his product is inexpensive, it's very high quality thanks to well thought out design and focus on sound quality rather than flashing lights and other such bells and whistles.

This is a blessing in disguise for Black Lion Audio. Though it scares off some skeptics, it also provides a nice balance and keeps away an inundation of orders.
