PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a receiver, a flow control method thereof, a transmitter and a flow control method thereof which is capable of reproducing high quality voices, without causing any failure such as breaking of voice reproduction upon the change of a sampling frequency. SOLUTION: The receiver constituted to store data received from a network in a buffer and read data in the buffer, based on a reference clock comprises a means for detecting the change of a sampling frequency of the data, a first control means for controlling to stop the write of the data in the buffer and read the data out of the buffer in response to the output of the detecting means, a means for clearing the data in the buffer in response to the output of the detecting means and a means for switching the frequency of the reference clock in response to the output of the detecting means and a second control means for controlling to resume the write of the data in the buffer and read the data out of the buffer in response to the output of the detecting means.
