Wireless that feels like a cable - without the dropouts and fuss
If youve ever gone wireless and missed the immediate feel of a real cable (or worried about interference on a crowded stage), the NUX C-5RC is the upgrade you will actually trust. It uses the 5.8GHz band to help avoid the traffic jam that often happens around 2.4GHz, then backs it up with high-resolution 24-bit/44.1kHz audio and ultra-low latency so your playing stays tight, responsive, and natural.
Features that make the C-5RC a gig-and-rehearsal hero
- 5.8GHz wireless performance: Designed to reduce interference and keep your signal stable on stage and at home.
- Plug-and-play, pre-paired from the factory: Power on, plug in, and it automatically selects the best channel for a solid connection.
- Ultra-low latency: Less than 5.5ms - the feel stays immediate and connected.
- Full-range, high-quality sound: 24-bit/44.1kHz audio with 20Hz-20kHz frequency response.
- Built-in CableTone: Optional cable capacitance simulation that mimics the effect of a 6.4m (21 ft) guitar cable for a more familiar response.
- Mute on the transmitter: Quick mute/unmute for quiet guitar swaps and between-song moments.
- Auto-sleep / auto-off: Helps save battery if youre not playing (transmitter powers down after 10 minutes without signal).
- Power charging case included: Stores and recharges both units, and can recharge the system about 2-3 times for up to 15 hours total battery life on the road.
Advantages
- Fewer stage problems: The 5.8GHz band and auto channel selection help you avoid common wireless headaches.
- Cleaner rigs: No cable clutter, no trip hazards, and faster setup/teardown.
- Consistent tone every time: Low noise and high bandwidth transmission keep your sound intact from guitar to amp, pedalboard, or interface.
Benefits
- Play with more freedom: Move up to 100 ft line-of-sight (environment-dependent) while staying locked in.
- Feel more connected: Low latency means your picking dynamics and timing stay true.
- Sound more natural: Turn on CableTone when you want that familiar "great cable" response without actually using one.
