The Korena take

SGI-RX is the receiving end of Radial’s SGI instrument line-driver system. Used with the SGI-TX transmitter, it takes a guitar or bass signal after a balanced XLR run of up to 300 feet and provides a 1/4-inch high-impedance output for an amplifier or pedalboard. Jensen transformers support the signal path, and the ground-lift switch is there to address hum caused by ground loops. It fits remote amp, isolation-booth, and remote-recording setups.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Receiving an instrument signal at an off-stage amplifier after a long balanced XLR run.
  • Connecting a remotely routed guitar or bass signal directly to an amplifier or pedalboard.
  • Studio isolation-booth and remote-recording signal paths using an SGI-TX transmitter.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Use without an SGI-TX transmitter; the receiver is designed to pair with that transmitter.
