There are two possibilities,
one is ronnie suggest to have one card with 4x SPDIF or an "adapter" for the OE22.
The advantage is that the cables to the DSP dont have to be changed.

The other possibilty is to have a hook up box at the speaker(with in and out like the standard solution)
so you have to use the cat cable.
The disadvantage is have this (expensive ?? ) little backpack on the DSP,
but the signal to the speakers get less influenced an distorted as the AES have 5V signal instead of 0,5 V as the SPDIF have.
So the owner can decide to pay more money on the backpack solution if he wants.
He can maybe get some money back because he can sell the expensive SPDIF cable if he have some -
or have not to invest in that cables when hewant to buy used (not standard) DSP.
So this - still more expensive- solution should have the same or near the same sonic advantages as the new speakerlink.
