[QUOTE="Alan Geering, post: 65155, member: 2093"] re: X32 Discussion I have never seen inside any of he boxes... actually never even held a p16m... but I strongly suspect the format is just balanced ADAT. Two pairs of wires carrying 8 channels each = 16 channels. This leaves the other 4 free for power. Why do I guess this? 1. Behringer are very smart and reuse designs where possible 2. The Ultranet bus is unidirectional 3. It is an established technology although not a standard. I used a bunch of converters to send ADAT over ethernet like this from my DDX3216 years ago - I didn't send power though. 4. Look at the input box... why do you think it has ADAT inputs? 5. Look at the s16 stage box... if you go to the effort of including ADAT outputs then there's very cost adding Ultranet and vice versa. I hope Behringer don't mind me posting this guess. Please don't anyone base decisions about plugging things in based on what I've guessed above. If you are a competent person with a multimeter or scope you can see if I am right. In relation to your question about feeding distributors from each other... it may be as simple as just not connecting all the wires in the Ethernet cable. Just don't connect the power wires. I think the idea of the personal monitors are great. I will be buying at least one soon for our drummer who uses headphones. [/QUOTE]
