Unless you are running a broadcast station there is absolutely no reason to use a Rubidium clock in an audio system. There is no way these clocks can produce more stable oscillation (phase noise) than a well built crystal oscillator. Their long term frequency accuracy is not relevant to audio reproduction where crystal oscillators exceed the pitch accuracy of human hearing by many decimal orders of magnitude.
If you are running a TV network where umsynchronized clocks might result in the waste of one second of air time or loss of a TV commercial then that might be a different matter.
