The nXe 1502 networkable amplifier has been designed to meet the most demanding live sound and fixed installation sound systems in stadiums, arenas, performance venues, worship spaces and convention centers. This amplifier uses state of the art, light weight, high power, high efficiency switching technology with active power-factor-correction, developed through years of design and field testing.

Description

The nXe 1502 allows for each speaker output to be configured for low impedance (2, 4, or 8 Ohm), or 25V, 70V, or 100V constant voltage output. This amplifier uses state of the art, light weight, high power, high efficiency switching technology with active power-factor-correction, developed through years of design and field testing. NX amplifiers are designed to meet the most demanding live sound and fixed installation sound systems in stadiums, arenas, performance venues, worship spaces and convention centers.

NXE features a universal switch-mode power supply with Power Factor Correction (PFC) that operates from 70VAC to 270VAC.

Multi-Mode Operation Selectable Outputs allow you to choose the desired output mode on each channel. Set the DIP-switch configuration for Low Impedance (2, 4, and 8 Ohm), or 25V, 70V, or 100V Constant Voltage and you’re set to go.

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).

Adapt Worldwide with a universal switch-mode power supply with PFC (Power Factor Correction). Reduce power consumption using Ashly EMS™ (Energy Management System) by triggering a sleep mode that draws <1W, which meets the most aggressive Energy Star® benchmark. Follow pre-scheduled preset settings including levels and sources using RTC Event Scheduler.
