Wrong. All M68k NeXT hardware has a Motorola 56000 DSP onboard.

The primary differences between the Cube and Slab is that the cube has a
NeXTbus (Nubus-89 derivative) and support for the Canon optical disk
drive.

What the cube incorporates that the slab does not is the NeXTbus Interface
Chip (NBIC).

ok
