Ashly NXP1.54 4-Channel Networkable Multi-Mode Power Amplifier with Protea DSP and CNM-2 CobraNet Option Card

NXP Multi-Mode Power Amplifiers with Selectable Outputs & Protea DSP
NX Multi-Mode Power Amplifiers are designed to meet the most demanding live sound environments and fixed audio installations anywhere-performance venues, stadiums, arenas, convention centers as well as schools, store fronts, and worship spaces.

Available as three separate amplifier series, NX offers 2 or 4-channel models as NX (base model series), NXE (network-able), or NXP (networkable + DSP).

All NXP Models Includes

Ethernet Control using Protea NE software
Also, serial data control by Ashly programmable remotes or third party controllers, aux preamp outputs, instant standby mode, preset recall, fault condition logic outputs, optional Dante, CobraNet, or AES3 digital audio capability (factory-installed).

Real-Time Clock with Event Scheduler
Assign automatic execution of selected functions and tasks. The event scheduler is programmed using PneS software and stored in the amplifier.

Ashly Remote Control via iPad app
Use our Ashly Remote free app available for custom design of secure wireless control over a network.

32-bit SHARC DSP Processing at 48kHz or 96kHz Sample Rates
Comprehensive software control of digital signal process-ing, matrix and auto-mixing, built-in signal generator for test tone and noise-masking, swept output load impedance monitoring. Use Ashly Remote iPad control to select DSP functions including gain, mute, matrix, A/B source select, PEQ filter level, and meters.

FIR Filter-Ready
Our PneS software will load a speaker manufacturer's .fir or .csv file to achieve precision tuning.

Class-D Switching Amplifier Technology
NXE features a switch-mode power supply which automatically detects 110 - 120VAC or 220 - 240VAC operation and makes NXE one of the lightest in its class.

Multi-Mode Operation
Selectable Outputs on each channel allow 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.

Energy Efficiency
NXE has power-saving Ashly EMS (Energy Management System) which provides an automatic sleep-mode drawing less than 1 Watt (defeatable).

Multiple Internal Power Supplies
NXE provides increased channel separation and reliability.

nXp1.54: Architect & Engineering Specs
