NUX B-8 wireless with a host if useful stuff built in

NUX B-8 Wireless System comes with a tuner, boost pedal, FX loop, and DI box

Currently pre-order for early next year. Looks decent though.

Yeah quite good competition for the shure wireless system imo . Why the boost though

I guess it is a feature they could integrate simply without taking up too much space or R&D/money.

I really don't need a wireless system, but it does look neat.

You know what would be a useful function for a stage tuner?  For it to display a clock when you're not using it as a tuner, so you don't overrun.  Much more professional than looking at your watch.

The new Taylor tuner does  that https://guitarbomb.com/2023/11/15/taylor-beacon-clip-on-digital-5-way-accessory/

The Nux is £289 pre order at Andertons.   Think I'll stick with my line 6 g30, Tu3 and spark mini!

But if  I didn't have those would definitely consider it. looks good.

I'm looking for a wireless to replace the horrible plasticky Line 6 G30 I had. Does anyone know if this is metal construction? It appears it could be from the photos but I can't find anything that confirms it.

@Jonathangus For years I've been using a BIG watch, £20, cut the strap off, and velcro'd to my pedalboard.

My uneducated guess would be it is metal, as there are plastic washers around the jack plugs, between the case and the nut. But that is just a guess.

I have one of these things designed to go on a car dashboard.  But given that your tuner is idle 99% of the time, would be a useful extra function.

I have the NUX C-5RC wireless and it’s brilliant. Played small venues and large ones and big outdoor gigs and it’s been faultless.

Has anyone here tried one of these yet?  I read a lot of people bemoaning the lack of 5 GHz functionality, but not sure whether that has actually been a problem in a gig situation for anyone.
