The Korena take

The black NXTa pairs a four-string upright electric double bass format with active and passive signal options. A 60-second connection to AC power charges the capacitor-based active electronics for as much as 16 hours, allowing direct connection to low- or high-impedance equipment without a direct box. For passive use, connect through a direct box or an amplifier’s high-impedance input. Crafted in the Czech Republic, it uses the same body-design, ergonomic, and performance-support approach found in the CR and EU Series.
