Description

The lightweight nXp1.5 4-Channel Multi-Mode Network Power Amplifier from Ashly features programmable output on each channel selectable via rear panel DIP switches with swept load impedance monitoring. Audio is processed via the 32-bit SHARC DSP at 48 or 96 kHz sample rates and a built-in signal generator is provided for test tone and noise-masking. The nXp1.5 amplifier comes pre-installed with Dante network audio module and features aux preamp outputs. Ethernet control is supported via the free Protea NE software (downloadable from Ashly's website) and serial data control is possible via Ashly programmable remotes or third party controllers (available separately). The Protea DSP (Digital Signal Processing) software is included for dynamics, gain, equalization, matrix mixer, crossover, delay, and metering. The amplifier is suitable for live sound and fixed installation sound systems at performance venues, stadiums, arenas, convention centers as well as schools, store fronts, and places of worship.

About the Ashly nXp1.54D 4-Channel Network Power Amplifier with OPDante Option Card

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.
