Details
The nXe1.54 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.
Sound systems in large architectural spaces require flexibility and big power whether it’s for line arrays, distributed sound systems, Left/Center/Right 3 and 4-way speaker systems, our new nX Series delivers up to 12,000W of clean power in a convenient 2U package. What’s more impressive is the nX Energy Management System with defeatable <1W sleep-mode (<1W energy consumption beats the most aggressive Energy Star benchmark). nX Amplifiers have multiple independent power supplies that provide increased performance and reliability.
The nXe Series is the networkable version of the nX amplifier with the addition of 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 controlled using Ashly Audio’s Protea Software Suite.- Features
