The Electro-Voice CDR-1000 is a compact, dual-channel UHF wireless receiver designed to provide reliable, high-quality audio reception for two separate wireless microphone systems in professional live sound, installed AV, and presentation environments. Operating on the UHF broadcast band, it utilizes true diversity reception—employing two independent antenna inputs and a sophisticated switching circuit—to combat signal dropouts, interference, and multipath distortion, ensuring a stable and clear audio link. This dual-receiver design in a single 1RU rack space offers an efficient and space-saving solution for users who need to manage two wireless channels, such as for a pair of handheld microphones, beltpacks, or a combination of both, making it ideal for small to medium-sized venues, houses of worship, and corporate settings.

The receiver features a straightforward front-panel interface with individual channel controls for volume, squelch, and power, along with clear LED metering for signal strength and audio activity. It is engineered for easy integration, offering balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4-inch output options for each channel to connect directly to mixers or powered speakers. The CDR-1000 is designed to work seamlessly with Electro-Voice's RE-1 series of wireless transmitters (like the RE-1 and RE-2), providing a complete and interoperable wireless system. By delivering robust dual-channel performance in a user-friendly and affordable package, it provides a dependable wireless audio foundation for applications where clarity and reliability are essential.
