No joy.  Got the following email:
"
The NX-100 is designed for sending high-quality, wide-band music and
speech over wide area Ethernet networks, including the internet.  In
order to do this, we use a widely compatible standard Ethernet, TCP/IP
and UDP interface, but the data stream uses a proprietary codec
algorithm.  So wherever an NX-100 is used to transmit audio, another
NX-100 is required at each receiving location to convert the stream back
to analog audio.
"

so, still looking...
