Description

The NXE Series 2-Channel Networkable Multi-Mode Power Amplifier from Ashly comes pre-installed with OPDAC4 internal 4-channel DAC with selectable HPF and OPDante Dante Network Audio Interface cards. The OPDante card enables access to digital audio networks at low latencies (83.3 μs) over fast Ethernet. It can be installed in the rear card slot of nXe series amplifiers. Signal can be routed from other Dante enabled devices by simply connecting a Cat5e or Cat6 cable to the card's primary or secondary (redundant) Ethernet ports. The amplifier is capable of driving 2 Ohms loads at full power and offers a maximum rated output power of 1500W per channel at Low Z and 70V modes, and 1250W in 100V mode. In addition, the amplifier is suitable for use in performance venues, stadiums, arenas, convention centers as well as schools, store fronts, and places of worship. The multi-mode amplifier features an automatic but defeatable sleep mode consuming <1W, and instant standby mode controlled by contact closure or software. A switch mode power supply can auto-detect 120 or 240 VAC mains, and a Neutrik powerCON is used for the AC cord. Each channel features a selectable output mode of Low Z, 70V, or 100V, an 80 Hz high-pass filter, input limiter, and input gain settings of 26 dB, 32 dB, 38 dB, or 1.4V. Each channel comes with a remote DC level control. The amplifier comes with Neutrik XLR/TRS combo jack and Euroblock input connectors and Neutrik speakON output connectors. The unit features a front panel power switch and level controls that can be disabled. The LEDs indicate Protect, Sleep, Disabled, Com, and Bridge mode status, as well as Temperature, Output Current, Output Signal, and Clipping/Mute status per channel. In addition, the power amplifier features an Ethernet control with a real-time clock for event scheduling. Read more

About the Ashly nXe1.52BD 2-Channel Network Power Amplifier with OPDante and OPDAC4 Option Cards

The Ashly nXE1.52 is a high-power, network-enabled stereo power amplifier designed for demanding professional sound reinforcement applications where substantial power output and remote system management are required. This amplifier delivers exceptional power, capable of providing 1500 watts per channel into 4 ohms or 900 watts per channel into 8 ohms under continuous operation, and supports 70V/100V constant-voltage configurations for distributed speaker systems. This makes it suitable for driving large main loudspeaker arrays, subwoofers, or high-power distributed systems in large venues such as concert halls, stadiums, mega-churches, and outdoor festivals. The amplifier incorporates efficient Class-H technology, which optimizes power delivery while managing heat dissipation and energy consumption, contributing to reliable performance during extended high-output use.

Network connectivity is a central feature, allowing the amplifier to be integrated into a facility's IP network for comprehensive remote monitoring and control. Through a standard Ethernet connection, system administrators can access the unit via a web browser or Ashly's software to monitor real-time performance metrics such as output level, thermal status, and impedance, mute channels, and recall preset configurations. This remote capability, supporting protocols like SNMP and Telnet, facilitates proactive system management, simplifies troubleshooting, and enables seamless integration into larger third-party control systems. The amplifier's design emphasizes both immense power reserves and intelligent system oversight, reducing the need for manual intervention at the rack.

Built for reliability in the most demanding environments, the nXE1.52 features a robust power supply, comprehensive protection circuits (including thermal, short-circuit, overload, and DC fault protection), and a variable-speed fan for effective thermal management. Its 3U rack-mountable steel chassis is engineered for heavy-duty use, with a front panel that provides clear status indicators for power, signal, and faults. The rear panel includes balanced XLR and terminal block inputs, as well as robust binding post outputs. By combining massive power output with networked monitoring and control in a single unit, the Ashly nXE1.52 offers a powerful and intelligent amplification solution for large-scale fixed installations and touring systems where performance, reliability, and remote management are critical.
