With the question of protocol unanswered, it is not clear if the proposed Mutec solution would work. Something like this offers a simpler alternative:

I did talk to Devialet's Mathieu Pernod about the optimum solution to the master companion link. At first he stated that there was basically no difference between the AES/EBU connection and using RCA, but after more detailed discussion he did advise that RCA to AES/EBU connection with a transformer was the optimum solution. I'm thinking you could try something like the Neutrik transformer with cheap cables as proof of concept. If this works satisfactorily, then you could get a decent custom cable made with transformer.
There is a very simple solution of course, link using the RCA to RCA method. NickB has already advised this works without issue. Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best? Although I think personally I would try the transformer method, if only out of curiosity, it would be cheap and easy enough to do.
