Nux C5RC 5.8GHz Passive/Active Instrument Wireless System

The Nux C5RC is a 5.8GHz wireless system, designed for use with electronic instruments such as guitars and bass guitars. With low latency, low noise, low interference and high bandwidth transmission, the Nux C5RC is a convenient, effective way to clean up your rig. Get rid of messy cables and go wireless!

Using 5.8GHz, the C5RC stays away from the already cluttered 2.4GHz band, which is used by Wi-Fi networks, Bluetooth devices and basically every wireless device you'd find on the market. This results in low interference, allowing your signal to be delivered cleanly, without any distortion or interference from other devices.

The C5RC delivers remarkable 24-bit audio quality, simple "plug and play" operation, super-low latency (<5 ms) and a solid signal for distances up to 30 meters (100 ft) in the correct conditions. The C-5RC also comes with a portable Power Case to keep the wireless units charged. An ideal design for when you are on the road. This portable charge station provides up to 15 hours of battery life and can charge the system approximately 3 times.

Also featuring a quick pair system, all you need to do is hold the power button on both devices. They'll pair straight away. All you need to do is plug in and you're ready to go! If you short click the power button on the transmitter, you can mute your signal. Useful for those moments between songs where you don't want your signal to come through your amp.

Absolute piece of s**t

By: on 19 August 2024
Bought this purely for studio so that I could have quick practice sessions with out the fuss of cables. Worked for the first couple of weeks (with occasional disconnection and having to reconnect) eventually they would disconnect after 40secs of playing , then it wouldn't pick up the receiver, then the one wouldn't charge , I'd sync the damn thing every time as per instructions. Eventually after months of struggling and pure frustration. I smashed the damn things to pieces and threw them away. Back to using a cable. No issues. DO NOT BUY. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Nux C5RC 5.8GHz Passive/Active Instrument Wireless

When I was given this to try I really didn't think it was for "professional" musicians as I perform on reasonably large Theatre stages. My Sennheiser system wasn't compatible with my pedal board so I was stuck with a cumbersome 30ft lead. I got to try it out over a week of gigs in noisy old Theatres with thick walls & it was flawless. I was surprised & I've now purchased the product which was 1/3 of the cost of the sennheiser.

Nux C5RC 5.8GHz wireless system

By: on 18 July 2024
I gig regularly as a guitarist and using the 5.8Ghz system has been flawless. Having said that my first system wasn't holding charge for nore than a couple of hours.. firstly I could use the portable charging case to top it up during breaks which worked ok for a while but Artist Guitars offered a full replacement set and now we're back in high gear. No drop outs or interference. great product and backup. thanks

Very quick delivery and so easy to set up and use. The recharging case is very handy and the wireless system works perfectly. No more tripping over leads or pulling them out of the guitar. They last my 3 hour Friday sessions easily. Thank you Artist for another great product.

Nux wireless as

By: on 9 October 2023
Found this,and have since ordered a second set! Gets me away from other wireless band widths within the band and venues for wireless lighting rigs. The Nux wireless are particularly good for my active basses and they fit well into the perculiar face top Input Jack of the Ibanez basses. The case keeps the transmitter and receiver safe and the case can do up to 3 charges once it is fully charged! Great product.

Simple and effective

By: on 20 September 2023
Bought the Nux unit to replace a bulky Samson analogue system. So easy to use, pairs quickly, latency is unnoticeable and the tone is clear and uncoloured. Battery life is good and the charging case is fantastic. The only issue I have had is the Nux will not work in my music room properly as it has constant interference and very short audio dropouts that I have traced to my 5.8 GHz router/high power WiFi access point in the same room - not a fault of the Nux but something to keep in mind and something that Nux do warn users about in the manual.

Sadly underperformed live

By: on 12 June 2023
This unit worked flawlessly at home with either low volume, hi gain amps or plugged into the interface, running hi gain plugins. But live when I had to crank my amp it really messed with the sound. Made my hi gain metal amp sound like a pushed clean gritty rock sound. Thought it was the amp at first until switching out the NUX for a cable, resolving the issue. I charged the unit the morning before the show and even double checked it before going onstage and it had sufficient charge. Possibly a rare occurrence but unfortunately I can’t recommend this for live application which ironically is what it’s built for. Will most likely return.

Can't beat NUX

By: on 12 May 2023
I bought the 5.8GHz to replace my NUX B-2 2.4GHz which I bought in 2018. ( other than during covid they have been getting used at a gig every weekend). The only reason for replacing is that the transmitter battery wont quite do a 4 hr gig anymore. I tried the new NUX as soon as I got it in the man cave. Connected straight away without any dramas. No lag and crystal clear. I walked outside and down the driveway about 15m away and it was still going strong. Tomorrow night (Saturday) and Sunday it will be put to the test at gigs

Saw these in a review and thought that they would be great as my first wireless system. It did not disappoint. Easy to use, it's not conspicuous and has a great wireless range - more than needed for a gig at a pub and at a great price.

Great concept but sounds like garbage

By: on 8 January 2023
I like the case recharging function but unfortunately it just sounds crackly. I did somewhat of a control test using a guitar cable, a Lekato 5.8gHz Wireless (similar to NUX) and the NUX, playing a loop through my Quad Cortex in to Cubase Pro via the Wireless. All waveforms look almost identical and the Lekato and Cable have no audible difference. The NUX sounded almost like it was clipping despite being the same level etc.. it was quite crackly.. anyway, it’s a shame because i love the charging case but it just sounds too crap to use live.

Great wireless system that doesn't break your bank

By: on 26 September 2022
Really good unit with a 5.8GHz frequency. Artist Guitar folks recommended the 5.8GHz one which I would also recommend over the B5RC for$20-30 more. Artist guitar were quick with support and shipping! definitely recommend this over the Boss WL systems. With the unit, be sure to checkout the reviews and the main website as active pickups might have a noise issue due to the battery ground TRS style setup. watch: 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLzFr0bJS2g&t=730s 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6siWXt6E120 3. https://www.nuxefx.com/c-5rc.html ----> if you have the noise issue, you need to get a TRS to TS adapter style such as https://www.riffsandlicks.com.au/hosa-gpp290-1-4-trs-to-1-4-ts-adaptor

Nux C5RC 5.8GHz Passive/Active Instrument Wireless

By: on 12 September 2022
A very useful device that eliminates having to use an instrument lead. The battery charging case is an added bonus which affords multiple recharging which is quick after playing a set or two. The fact that this is effective for both passive & active instrument pickups is another bonus. Worth the price & great service from Artist Guitars.

Simply just works

By: on 15 June 2022
Purchased this after I snapped my Ammoon 5.8 transmitter because it dangled from the jack. The Nux is about half the size and it stays tucked away high will make less likely to be bumped into something. This really is just a plug the transmit and receive units in, turn them, wait 2 seconds to connect and then play. That simple and no annoying cables. I haven’t”t had any noise or interference issues so far, and most of my playing is sitting next to a laptop with my mobile close by. An old Xvive 2.4GHz system I had did get interference. Battery life isn’t huge, probably due to the size, but certainly plenty for a gig or a 3 hour rehearsal. The storage case has a battery which provides at least 2 charges to the units which is great. Overall, recommended if you are in the market for a simple wireless system. And trust me, you will love not having cables getting tangled all the time!
