ASHLY NXP3.02 Network Multi-Mode Power Amp 2 x 3KW at 2 2KW at 4 1250W at 8 or 2450W

Product Overview

The Ashly NXP3.02 is a two-channel networkable power amplifier with integrated Protea DSP, delivering 3,000 watts per channel at 2 ohms, 2,000 watts at 4 ohms, 1,250 watts at 8 ohms, and 2,450 watts at 70V constant voltage. This high-power networkable amplifier with DSP commercial install is designed for demanding fixed installations where two independent zones each require substantial output: auditoriums, large houses of worship, performance venues, and convention centers. Without a Dante option card, audio inputs are analog via Neutrik Combo XLR/TRS or Euroblock, while Ethernet control via Protea NE software provides full remote management. The NXP3.02 offers the complete Protea DSP feature set including FIR filter support, event scheduling, and iPad wireless control in a two-channel rack-mount chassis.

Product Description

The Ashly NXP3.02 Ashly Protea DSP amplifier combines the high-output performance of the NXP series with two independent channels capable of driving large speaker loads in commercial and institutional installations. Each channel delivers 3,000W into 2 ohms or 2,450W at 70V, making the NXP3.02 suitable for high-power distributed audio applications where fewer but higher-capacity zones are required. The Class-D switching amplifier topology with switch-mode power supply maintains high efficiency while the unit auto-detects 120V or 240V AC input for international compatibility. Protea DSP provides comprehensive signal processing — dynamics, parametric EQ, matrix mixing, crossover, delay, metering, and FIR filter support — all configured via Protea NE software over Ethernet from a networked workstation. The built-in real-time clock with event scheduler enables automated preset recalls, standby transitions, and power-on delays on programmable schedules, removing the need for manual operator intervention in venues with consistent daily programming. Aux preamp line outputs allow the NXP3.02 to drive additional amplifiers when system expansion is required, making it a viable head amplifier in tiered distributed systems. The Ashly Remote iPad app provides wireless operator control of DSP functions including gain, mute, matrix routing, and PEQ. Fault condition logic outputs per channel integrate with building management or control systems for proactive fault notification and remote diagnosis. The Ashly EMS (Energy Management System) provides automatic sleep mode drawing less than 1 watt during idle periods. All connectors are Neutrik — Combo XLR/TRS and Euroblock inputs, speakON speaker outputs, and powerCON AC mains — appropriate for permanent commercial installation.

Key Features

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the NXP3.02 include Dante audio networking?

No. The NXP3.02 uses analog audio inputs (Neutrik Combo XLR/TRS and Euroblock) and does not include a Dante option card. Network connectivity is Ethernet-only for Protea NE software control. For Dante audio networking, consider the NXP3.02D variant if available.

What AV control systems is the NXP3.02 compatible with?

The NXP3.02 supports Ethernet control via Protea NE software, serial control via Ashly WR-5 and RD-8C remotes, and third-party RS-232 control using the optional INA-1 converter. A Q-SYS plugin for Protea is available.

Can the NXP3.02 drive both 70V and low-impedance speakers?

Yes. Each of the two channels is independently configurable for 70V or 100V constant-voltage or 2, 4, or 8 ohm low-impedance operation via rear panel DIP switches.

What is the maximum output power of the NXP3.02?

The NXP3.02 delivers 3,000 W per channel at 2 ohms and 2,450 W per channel at 70V, making it one of the highest-output two-channel models in the NXP series.

What is the NXP3.02 warranty?

The NXP3.02 carries a 5-year limited warranty and is manufactured in the United States by Ashly Audio. It is TAA compliant and certified RoHS and cTUVus.

Does the NXP3.02 support automated scheduling?

Yes. A built-in real-time clock and event scheduler automates preset recalls, standby mode, and power-on delays on programmed schedules via PneS software, stored in the amplifier's internal memory.
