Ashly NXE8002 2-Channel Amplifier with Ethernet Control, OPDante & OPDAC4 Cards

An embodiment of power and sophistication, the NXE8002 2-Channel Networkable Multi-Mode Power Amplifier with Ethernet Control, OPDante, and OPDAC4 Cards is meticulously engineered to cater to the most demanding live sound environments and fixed audio installations. This includes performance venues, stadiums, arenas, convention centers, schools, storefronts, and worship spaces. This advanced amplifier is part of Ashly's NX series, available in 2 or 4-channel models, and comes in three distinct series - NX (base model series), NXE (networkable), and NXP (networkable + DSP). The NXE8002 model stands out with its Ethernet control using Protea NE software, offering unparalleled control and flexibility. The amplifier also supports serial data control by Ashly programmable remotes or third-party controllers, aux preamp outputs, instant standby mode, preset recall, and fault condition logic outputs. It boasts optional Dante, CobraNet, or AES3 digital audio capability, which are factory-installed, enhancing its versatility. The NXE8002 amplifier is equipped with a Real-Time Clock with Event Scheduler, allowing automatic execution of selected functions and tasks. The event scheduler is programmed using PneS software and stored in the amplifier, ensuring smooth operations. For added convenience, the amplifier supports Ashly Remote Control via an iPad app, allowing for custom design of secure wireless control over a network. The NXE8002 model features Class-D Switching Amplifier Technology and a switch-mode power supply, which automatically detects 110 - 120VAC or 220 - 240VAC operation, making it one of the lightest in its class. The Multi-Mode Operation Selectable Outputs on each channel allow you to choose the desired output mode. You can set the DIP-switch configuration for Low Impedance (2, 4, and 8 Ohm), or Constant Voltage (70V or 100V), providing flexibility in usage. The NXE8002 amplifier is energy efficient, featuring Ashly EMS (Energy Management System) that provides an automatic sleep-mode drawing less than 1 Watt (defeatable). It also has multiple internal power supplies for increased channel separation and reliability. The unit is a 2 channel multi-mode amplifier capable of driving 2 Ohm loads at full power, with a maximum rated output power of 800W per channel at Low Z, 70V, and 100V mode. The amplifier has temperature-dependent variable speed forced-air cooling, ensuring optimal performance. The NXE8002 amplifier is compact and lightweight, weighing less than 22.2 lbs (10.1kg), and measures 19"W x 3.5"H x 16.8"D (483mm x 89mm x 428mm), making it suitable for mounting in a standard 19" rack. In conclusion, the NXE8002 2-Channel Networkable Multi-Mode Power Amplifier with Ethernet Control, OPDante, and OPDAC4 Cards is a powerful, reliable, and versatile audio equipment solution that delivers superior performance and flexibility.
