The Ashly nXp3.04D is a 4-channel, 30000-Watt @ 4 Ohm network power amplifier with DSP and programmable outputs. This models comes with Ashly’s OPDante® module installed will be capable of transmitting Dante® digital audio from their post-DSP input channel signals. nXp amplifier inputs are available to Dante® Controller as individual digital audio sources (transmitters) for use with other Dante® devices.
Ashly's line of nX Power Amplifiers feature lightweight, energy efficient Class D switching amplifier technology combined with a switch mode power supply. The nX amplifiers are available in three product families designed to meet the most demanding live sound and fixed installation sound systems in stadiums, arenas, performance venues, worship spaces and convention centers.
Ashly nXp Series amplifiers add 32-bit SHARC DSP processing (with 48kHz & 96kHz sampling) as standard equipment for comprehensive audio processing, with built-in signal generator for test tone, and noise-masking. Plus precision load impedance monitoring on each amplifier channel output.
