We go over the B-8 Wireless System from Nu-X! Wow is this a cool rig! Be sure to tell me what you think in the comments and be sure to subscribe....Thanks Y'all!
I’ve had mine for a couple weeks now and it is a GREAT unit! Here’s a couple of observations I’ve noticed that may be inherit to all or possibly just isolated to mine. 1. Yes you can power it via usb-c, but mine noticeably degreases the input level when not using the power cable. And it’s much less input than a cable. 2. My unit does not retain the boost level setting after being unplugged. I like around a 5db boot and I find i have to back to boost level and readjust that setting each time I power the receiver back up. These are minor things and will likely be corrected in firmware updates. Overall it’s well worth the money!
@@MainStageMusicTV quick update: 1. From NUX customer service " USB-C Power As per the product manager, it's an added bonus or, in other words, a backup plan for situations where there is no dedicated power adapter available. However, because the voltage is only 5V when powering the B-8 via the USB-C port, the signal level may not be as robust as when using a dedicated 9V power adapter." 2. as for the weird boost level retention issue, a quick re-flash of the latest firmware also resolved that issue as well. My unit is retaining all of it's settings now when powering cycling the receiver. Conclusion - great product and GREAT customer service from NUX.
Just to clarify, it’s not a boost OR a tuner. It’s a boost AND a tuner. Changing one or the other in the menu only changes the order, or more accurately, short press option. Set it as a boost, short press gets you a boost, long press gets you a tuner.
Aww thanks man! This was a 'first look' video, so I do appreciate the clarification! It makes me love this box even more! Please subscribe to the channel and comment whenever you like! Thanks again
I'm sold already!! Really great review. Mine is on the way!!!
Thanks for the comment and for subscribing to our channel! Next time, I hope you use Main Stage Music for your purchase! Inde shops Rock!
Regretting your choice yet? because i did. The unit is great at everything else except for it actual purpose, being a stable wireless system
the distortion pedal would go in the fx loop or NUXB8 > OUTPUT > DISTORTION > AMPLIFIER
Thanks for the comment, and for subscribing! You could actually run a distortion pedal either way you mentioned. It would both work fine!
