Description

The nXp1.54 Network Power Amplifier from Ashly Audio is the networkable version of the nX amplifier. It comes with Ethernet control, serial data control, aux preamp outputs, instant standby mode, preset recall, fault condition logic outputs, and optional network audio and digital audio capability. All these are controlled using Ashly Audio's Protea software suite. This amplifier is designed to meet the most demanding live sound and fixed installation sound systems in stadiums, arenas, performance venues, worship spaces, and convention centers. The Network Power Amplifier adds 32-bit SHARC DSP processing (with 48 kHz and 96 kHz sampling) as standard equipment for comprehensive audio processing, with built-in signal generator for test tone, and noise-masking. Plus, you get precision load impedance monitoring on each amplifier channel output. Read more

About the Ashly nXp1.54 Network 4ch 6kW Network Power Amplifier w/Protea DSP

The Ashly nXp1.54 is an extreme high-power, four-channel network amplifier engineered for the most demanding professional audio applications where immense power and sophisticated control are required. This model delivers a formidable total of 6kW, with each channel capable of driving very low impedance and reactive loudspeaker loads with exceptional control and stability. It is designed for large-scale sound reinforcement in touring, major installed venues, and high-SPL distributed systems where unparalleled power density and reliability are critical. The amplifier leverages robust and efficient amplification technology to provide clean, controlled power with minimal distortion even at peak output levels.

Integration of the Protea DSP platform is a key differentiator, providing this amplifier with professional-grade digital signal processing directly onboard. Accessible via Ethernet, the DSP offers comprehensive per-channel tools including parametric EQ, output delay, crossover filters, and compressor/limiters. This enables precise acoustic tuning, speaker system optimization, and protective limiting without requiring an external processor. Network connectivity allows for complete remote management, monitoring, and diagnostics, enabling technicians to adjust parameters and check system health—such as output level, temperature, and impedance—from a central computer.

Housed in a substantial rack-mountable chassis with advanced thermal management, the nXp1.54 is built to withstand the rigors of continuous high-output operation. Its combination of extraordinary power density, integrated Protea DSP, and networked intelligence makes it a cornerstone component for audio system designers who require a powerful, software-configurable amplifier capable of serving as the core of a sophisticated and easily managed high-power audio network.
