Will need to remove the special twin-feed connector used by the Sly+ box to split and replace with a couple of F-connectors , but I'm guessing that should be straightforward enough!
You can ditch the sly box now and use the Duo, added benefit all your reordings will still be available if you cancel your sub unlike with the sly box.

Also the F cinnevtores from the sly bix will work with the duo or anyther box.
