Overview:

The NX55P active speaker enclosure uses a combination of amplifier technologies to create the best combination of lightweight enclosure and high quality sound.

The 1200-watt (Peak) bi-amplified NX55P uses a two-tier class H linear technology for high frequencies, 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, and a perfect solution for powering the top end. The woofer or low frequency amplifier uses Class D switching technology to reduce overall weight of the amplifier section, and deliver maximum power to the 12-inch woofer.

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. The NX55P has user defeatable 100Hz high pass filters that allow either cabinet to be used more efficiently with any Yorkville active subwoofer.

Integrated bar handles, 1/4-20 flypoints and integrated stand mount adaptor, as well as 1/4-inch TRS and XLR inputs ensure the NX55P can be easily integrated into any live or DJ PA set up.

Optional NX Flying Hardware

The NXF flyware is a unique and versatile U-bracket system that attaches to the integrated flypoints on NX cabinets for a safe and secure installation. Once mounted, the cabinets can be flown at almost any angle with a standard shackle and cable system. In addition, the cabinet can be angled up to 30 degrees left or right across the horizontal plane within the NXF U-bracket. Flying an array of NX cabinets with ideal spacing between boxes is possible by joining multiple NXF U-Brackets and their mounted cabinets together with a simple arraying adaptor.

NXF35U - Steel U-Bracket flying assembly

NXF35W - Wall Mounting Bracket (to attach NXF35U assembly to wall or pillar)

NXF35A - Array Link Assembly (to properly array NXF350U flying assemblies - sold in pairs)
