Overview

NX55P

T

he new NX55P active speaker enclosure uses a combination of amplifier
technologies to create the best combination of lightweight enclosure and
high quality sound. Capitalizing on the already popular NX35's molded
cabinet technology and a totally re-engineered switching power supply, the
550 watt (program) bi-amped NX55P weighs in under 50lbs (19 kg)... the
lightest in its class by a long shot.

Like all NX series enclosures,the NX55P is manufactured using tough, light
weight low resonance variable density composite materials. In addition they
are UV and moisture resistant. The NX55P enclosure itself has been molded
for maximum versatility
or for use as a monitor. An improved wedge monitor angle has been
incorporated into the new design.

The horn amplifier uses a two-tier class H linear technology, allowing the
horn to produce loud clean transients to keep up with the high output of the
woofer. The two-tier amplifier technology is a lower weight, more efficient
amplifier with higher headroom and lower operating temperature. It is a
perfect solution for powering the top end.

The NX55P can easily be used in any orientation, and close to walls, floors
and in close arrays with multiple cabinets. Particular care was taken
designing the components to reduce extraneous heat production.

The NX55P has a versatile direct input system and built-in mixer. The
mixer allows the loudspeaker to be used directly with a microphone and
/ or line source. The loop output allows additional active cabinets to be
driven from one cabinet's mixer stage, or a series of cabinets to be
driven from one source. If desired, the end user can combine multiple
NX55P's using the mixer inputs on each cabinet and coupling the loop
outputs. In this simple example you would have the ideal presentation
system with two microphone inputs, two line inputs.

The microphone input has equalization and high pass filtering appropriate
for vocal applications. The trim control allows looped cabinets to be
individually adjusted in level.
pass filters allow either cabinet to be used more efficiently with any

overall speaker performance and protection. Borrowing some ideas from
our powerful and popular TX Series PA systems, the limiters used in the
input and crossover stages are a complex combination of gain reduction
and sweeping filters.As the NX55P is being pushed to its maximum input
/ output levels, it''s advanced filtering begins rolling off unnecessary
subsonic frequencies.

The filter has remarkable response times (less than 70ms), allowing the
system to constantly be returning itself to make sure the output is as
clean, as loud and as clear as possible at any given moment. This is
achieved without negatively affecting the overall sonic quality of the
cabinet.
solo instruments, comes out clean and clear at the extremes of power and
woofer excursion. Extremely fast and accurate limiting is in place to
protect the speaker components.

The NX55P has a built in mixer that allows the loudspeaker to be used
directly with a tuned microphone and / or line sources such as mixer, CD
player or laptop computer. The loop output allows additional powered
cabinets to be driven from one cabinet''s mixer stage, or a series of
cabinets to be driven from one source. If desired, the end user can
combine a pair of the NX55P's using the mixer inputs on each cabinet and
coupling the loop outputs. In this simple example you would have the
ideal presentation system with two microphone inputs, two line inputs
optimized for CD, cassette or laptop computer audio source, complete
within two speaker cabinets. Many NX55P's can be linked together but a
maximum of three "mixers" can be active at any one time. (Making three
mic sources and six line sources available in any three or more cabinet
array). The microphone input has equalization and high pass filtering
appropriate for vocal applications. The trim control allows looped
cabinets to be individually adjusted in level.
applications where large numbers of cabinets are used such as clusters or
in trade show applications. The NX55P has a selectable two position
high-pass filter to limit extraneous low frequency rumble, or to crossover
at the input so the loudspeaker can easily and effectively be used with
subwoofers from a single full range source. Engaging the high pass filter
also makes the NX55P a more efficient and effective vocal monitor.

The NX55P is an ideal loudspeaker for mobile presentation PA where high
volume and superior sound quality is required. Multiple loudspeakers can
easily be linked using mixer inputs from each loudspeaker to create a six
input system... no external mixer required. (Up to three "mixer" sources can
be used in any one system.)

This ensures that the essential part of any mix, like the vocals or
