Neutrik - NX1RX-T

Xirium system receiver (with mini XLR power supply and antenna) - Touring version. Xirium is a digital wireless system designed to replace analogue audio cables in situations where it may be difficult or inappropriate to run a cable, but where a stable connection and audio quality must be maintained. The system is suitable for conferences, live events and music performance and offers a solution for venues where cables are difficult to hide and trip hazards must be avoided including churches, historic buildings, museums, hotels and colleges.

Operating in the license-exempt 5GHz frequency band, the system can send or receive up to eight channels of uncompressed, studio quality, 24 bit, 48 kHz audio with only 3.4 milliseconds latency per circuit. Neutrik's in-house designed DIWA (Digital Wireless Audio) transmit and receive protocol, together with patented FEC forward error correction, results in robust, noise-free operation, even in the presence of heavy local RF traffic. To maximise RF coverage, the diversity antenna system can be augmented with optional, directional antennas. The system is designed for line of sight operation.

RX and RX-T receivers supply balanced, line-level audio, with a maximum output of 16dBu. Output is set at unity gain and is suitable for driving powered loudspeakers. Up to three receivers can be synced or 'associated' with each of the four channels of a TRX base station, giving a maximum of twelve line-level, analogue, audio outputs - useful for press conferences and other situations requiring multiple, high-quality audio feeds. The number of outputs can be increased by adding a second TRX base station.
