Nexo has updated its range of NXamp TDcontrollers with the NXamp4x2 Mk2 and NXamp4x1 Mk2 amplifier models, the result of collaboration between R&D engineers from Nexo and parent company Yamaha.
The NXamp4x1 Mk2 and NXamp4x2 Mk2 present Nexo’s expertise in DSP control in lighter, sleeker 2U-high packages with touchscreen control. Available in 4x 1kW and 4x 2kW, and weighing in at 16kg and 16.6kg, these ultra-low distortion class-D amplifiers combine 96kHz, 32-bit converters and 64-bit signal processing to deliver significant advances in sound quality over the already highly regarded MK1 NXamps.
A large LCD colour touch-screen on the front panel enables faster and easier navigation, giving direct access to all essential parameters including: array EQ, mute and meters, EQ detail, User EQ, inputs, load monitoring, log, scene, set-up, system headroom, volume, and gain and delays.
A native dual Ethernet port offers seamless integration with Nexo’s proprietary NeMo system management software. Amplifiers can be remote-controlled and daisy-chained via a Remote Control card fitted as standard, with optional Dante, EtherSound and AES/EBU network cards also available. Four high-end analogue inputs use cascaded converters for low output noise, and four digital inputs are available through the rear panel expansion card slot offering optional AES/EBU, EtherSound, Dante or AES67 inputs, all with automatic analogue fall-back.
In addition to the expansion card slot, other rear panel connectivity includes RS232 serial and GPIO ports along with Speakon outputs for each of the four channels.
Aimed at touring and fixed installations, the amplifiers feature a universal power supply (100–240V) using PFC (Power Factor Correction) technology for maximum efficiency and smooth current draw.
The NXamp4x2 Mk2 is a new design in the NXamp range, ideal for Nexo’s Geo Series of compact line array systems, and for the ever-popular PS Series cabinets. The NXamp4x1 Mk2 replaces the NXamp4x1 model, which Nexo will continue to support as a legacy product.
