There are a few things to be aware of. After it took me 2 months to get
two Delta 1010s working I put up a web page about it at

http://www.sound-man.co.uk/linuxaudio/ice1712multi.html

The info there might save you some trouble.
I'm using a (short) BNC cable made with a piece of TV co-ax to sync the
two boxes. It works. (OK the 1010 has the BNCs on the breakout box
instead of a flying lead like the 1010LT, but I don't expect that to
make a difference).
BTW the manual I got with my Delta 1010s says the word clock input will only
take up to 50kHz. I've been told by M-Audio tech support that this is a typo
and it will take the full 96kHz.
