About the Lectrosonics SRA Dual UHF Receiver
The Lectrosonics SRA is a professional, rack-mountable dual-channel UHF wireless receiver designed for critical audio applications in broadcast, film, television, and live sound. It provides two independent receiver channels in a single 1U rack space, offering efficient use of equipment real estate while delivering the exceptional audio quality and RF performance synonymous with the Lectrosonics brand. The receiver operates on the UHF broadcast band and utilizes Lectrosonics' proprietary digital hybrid wireless technology, which combines the clarity and dynamic range of digital audio with the robust transmission and interference rejection of analog FM. This results in clean, reliable audio transmission with a wide dynamic range and low noise, even in challenging RF environments with multiple wireless systems.
The SRA receiver offers extensive frequency agility, allowing users to select from multiple frequency blocks and tune each channel independently across a wide spectrum to find clear operating frequencies. It features sophisticated front-end filtering and interference avoidance circuitry to maximize performance in crowded wireless conditions. Each channel includes comprehensive metering for both audio level and RF signal strength, along with user-selectable settings for squelch, frequency, and audio companding. The receiver is designed to work seamlessly with Lectrosonics' wide range of compatible transmitters, including the SMQV and SM series, providing a complete, high-performance wireless system for professional users.
Built for reliability in demanding production environments, the SRA features a rugged metal chassis and is designed for continuous operation. Its rear panel includes balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4-inch audio outputs for each channel, along with antenna inputs for diversity reception (using two antennas per channel for improved signal stability) and DC power connections for use with external power supplies or battery belts in remote setups. The combination of dual-channel density, superior audio performance, intelligent frequency management, and robust construction makes the Lectrosonics SRA a trusted choice for audio professionals who require dependable, broadcast-quality wireless audio reception.
