About Ashly NXP1502

Let the NXP1502 2-Channel Networkable Multi-Mode Power Amplifier with Protea DSP and OPDante Option Card elevate your audio experience. This advanced, high-quality amplifier is designed to cater to the most demanding live sound environments and fixed audio installations, making it ideal for performance venues, stadiums, arenas, convention centers, schools, storefronts, and worship spaces.

This multifunctional amplifier is part of Ashly's NX series, available in 2 or 4-channel models, and comes in three different versions: NX (base model series), NXE (networkable), and NXP (networkable + DSP). It boasts Ethernet Control using Protea NE software, allowing for seamless integration with Ashly programmable remotes or third-party controllers.

The NXP1502 amplifier is equipped with aux preamp outputs, instant standby mode, preset recall, and fault condition logic outputs. It also offers optional Dante, CobraNet, or AES3 digital audio capability, all factory-installed. The amplifier's Real-Time Clock with Event Scheduler allows for automatic execution of selected functions and tasks, programmed using PneS software and stored in the amplifier.

The NXP1502 amplifier also offers Ashly Remote Control via an iPad app, providing custom design of secure wireless control over a network. Its Class-D Switching Amplifier Technology features a switch-mode power supply that automatically detects 110 - 120VAC or 220 - 240VAC operation, making the NXP1502 one of the lightest in its class.

The amplifier's Multi-Mode Operation with Selectable Outputs on each channel allows you to choose the desired output mode. Set the DIP-switch configuration for Low Impedance (2, 4, and 8 Ohm), or Constant Voltage (70V or 100V) and you're set to go. The NXP1502 also features Ashly's EMS (Energy Management System) for power-saving, providing an automatic sleep-mode drawing less than 1 Watt.

The NXP1502 amplifier is designed to drive 2 Ohm loads at full power, with a maximum rated output power of 150W per channel at Low Z, 25V mode, 70V mode, and 100V mode. It also features 32-bit DSP processing at 48kHz or 96kHz sampling rate, offering a range of DSP functions including swept load impedance, gain, dynamics, equalization, a matrix mixer, crossover, delay, and a signal generator.

The NXP1502 amplifier is compatible with Microsoft Windows 10, 8, 7 (Vista/XP) 32 & 64 bit systems, making it a versatile choice for audio professionals. With its temperature-dependent variable speed forced-air cooling, this durable amplifier is built to last, providing powerful, high-quality sound for all your audio needs.
