Hi If you were going insane on a fountain, you likely would go with one of the sapphire whispering gallery devices as the start of your chain. A good one will blow a quartz crystal based part away …. Bob
When I left Keysight in 2014, they were still trying to solve the microphonic problem in their sapphire resonator oscillator. Also, it is still necessary to lock the oscillator to a 5 or 10 MHz OCXO. The oscillator is tuned by varying its oven temperature set ppoint.
