Auto-Mixer
Ambient Noise Compensation
Dynamics processing with auto-ducker
EQ & crossovers including FIR filters
Time alignment and tower delay
Scheduled noise-masking with Real-Time Clock
Swept AC load-analysis with baseline logging
FIR Filter capable, dynamics, gain, equalization, 2×4 or 4×4 matrix mixer, crossover, delay, metering, and signal generator functions for test and noise masking applications
Precision swept load impedance monitoring of each amplifier channel
Ethernet Control and monitoring of amplifier functions, with front panel COM activity LED
Serial data port for use with Ashly remote control devices, or optional RS- 232 converter for third party controllers (INA-1)
Use Protea™ Software to remotely disable all front panel controls, including the on/off switch, for a tamper-proof installation
Real-Time Clock with Event Scheduler
Instant Standby Mode 30% reduction in power consumption with on/off and Preset Recall, both via contact closure, software control, or event scheduler
Programmable power-on delay
Aux preamp outputs, and fault condition logic outputs
Optional Cobranet™ or Dante® and AES3 digital audio input with passthru
Rear panel DIP switches select low impedance (2, 4, and 8 Ohm), constant voltage (70V or 100V), high pass filter, limiter and input gain on each channel
Ashly Energy Management System (EMS) for increased efficiency) automatic <1Wsleep-mode (defeatable)
Switch mode power supply automatically detects 120V or 240V AC operation
Extensive protection circuitry
Continuously variable cooling fans
Front panel power switch and level controls (can be disabled for security)
Multiple internal power supplies provide increased channel separation and reliability
Remote DC level control on each input channel (2 RU models only)
Genuine Neutrik® connectors on 2 RU models for security, safety, and reliability
The nXp1.54d offers 4 channels and has 1500 Watts per channel. Comes with OPDante Option Card. nXp Multi-Mode Amplifiers feature energy-efficient Class-D switching amplifier technology combined with a switch mode power supply. All feature Selectable Outputs on each channel so you can connect to virtually any speaker: low impedance (2, 4, and 8-ohm), or constant voltage (70V or 100V).
nXe builds on Ashly's nX series by adding Ethernet control, event scheduler, preset recall, AUX outputs, factory options like Dante® for network audio integration and serial data port for use with Ashly remote control devices, or optional RS- 232 converter for third party controllers (INA-1). Protea™ software can be used to remotely disable all front panel controls, including the on/off switch, for a tamper-proof installation.
nXp amplifiers carry all nX and nXe features plus Protea DSP and swept load impedance analysis. These amps are designed to meet the most demanding live sound environments and fixed installation sound systems such as stadiums, arenas, performance venues, worship spaces and convention centers.
