CobraNet (Score 2)

If network audio interests you, I suggest you check out CobraNet.

Here are a few reasons why:

Already supported by a number of manufacturers including QSC, Rane, Peavey, Crest, Level Control Systems, Eastern Acoustic Works and Crown.

Uses standard Ethernet - uses off the shelf switches and hubs

Each 100m link supports 64 channels of audio

A single switch ( with enough backplane bandwith ) can support upwards of 600 audio channels

Can coexist with regular ethernet data so you can play Q3A on the same network

I am obviously biased ( check the sig below ) but what the hell...
