All NE two channel power amplifiers come standard with
XLR and Euroblock input connectors, and SpeakON/Euroblock
output connectors. All models include balanced analog inputs, bridge mono mode, an 80Hz hi-pass filter, input sensitivity switch,
full Ethernet control using Ashly

ne
software, remote standby for power up, and DC remote level control. Also included
are Analog Aux Outputs on XLR and Euroblock connectors. The Aux Outputs are buffered signals taken just before the power
amplifier stage. If there is no DSP installed in the amplifier, the Aux Outputs are simply a buffered signal matching the inputs.
If the amplifier has DSP, Aux Outputs can be independently configured along with the two main amplifier channels with custom
DSP processing and input source, including AES3 or network audio sources, if installed.
Additional factory installed options are available for the
NE
two channel power amplifiers which include the following:
1) DSP Processing (PE)
- Factory installed DSP and
Protea
ne
software allows amplifier channels to be configured with
pluggable DSP blocks for dynamics controls, gain functions, FIR filters (output only), graphic and/or parametric EQ, hi-pass/
lo-pass filters, crossover (output only), time delay, metering, or test signal generator. A mixer section with assignable routing
allows any input to drive any output, including auxilliary outputs. Input and output channels can copy/paste their settings to
another channel, or can link with one or more other channels to track their settings. Further details are available in the specifica
-
tions or in software online help.
Presets can store and retrieve global parameters of an amplifier’s control surface and DSP section from a file. In addition,
Sub Presets allow for a collection of individual DSP function parameters within and across both channels of an amplifier to be
stored and recalled as a set, affecting only those parameters which have been tagged. Up to 35 device presets/subpresets can be
stored within the amplifier, and can be recalled from software.
2) AES3 Input (OPAES1)
- With the OPAES1 option installed, this amplifier can accept AES3 stereo digital inputs. This
protocol allows 2 channels of digital audio to be transmitted over a single cable, thus maintaining a completely digital signal
path until just before the power amplification stage. 48kHz & 96kHz data rates are supported.
3) Network Digital Audio (CNM-2 or OPDante)
- Ashly supports CobraNet and Dante network audio options which
must be factory installed when purchasing the amplifier. CobraNet
®
www.cobranet.info
is a combination of software, hardware
and network protocol which allows distribution of multiple channels of real-time, high quality digital audio over a standard
Ethernet Network.
Dante™, created by
, is an Ethernet based digital AV network technology that uses existing 100MB
or 1GB network infrastructure for delivery of high performance, high channel count audio signals.
