The A20-SuperNexus receiver builds upon the industry-first features of the A20-Nexus and A20-Nexus Go receivers, by offering even more channels, flexibility, and versatility in a single wireless receiver than ever before. Ideal for large productions, live events, international tours, festivals, and beyond, it has unmatched channel density – a base 16 channels that are expandable up to 32 channels of clean, reliable RF in just a 1U 19” rack unit. The A20-SuperNexus receiver is operable worldwide due to its unprecedented 169-1525 MHz global tuning range courtesy of Sound Devices’ category-defining SpectraBand Technology, and has built-in HexVersityⓇ (2-to-6-antenna diversity) for multiple antenna configurations. The A20-SuperNexus receiver also includes the new RF Mirror Mode for full redundant operation.
