i'm not very well informed when it comes to how word clock works and how it is transmitted. is the signal sent of the spdif cable sent the exact same way and encoded the same was as the word clock sent over the BNC? spdif sends audio as well, which is why i'm unsure. if a simple adapter / cable solution is possible, would this be what we are looking for? http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/RCAadapter/

anyone have any other possible solutions? i dont mind dropping $2 to test this out.

edit: also, is an spdif cable really that reliabe for transmitting clock information?. SPDIF was meant as a consumer level version of the AES/EBU.
