CA502 - Overview

Stable operation at 0.2 ohms (0.2O) No, that's not a misprint.

The CA Series is the next generation of Class D amplifiers. Ashly's proprietary D-MAX technology pushes amplifier efficiency to new heights and provides unmatched operational stability and performance in a commercial amplifier. By using ultra-fast, lossless Silicone-Carbide switches, a newly designed high-speed power supply, and Ashly's Dynamic Power Factor Correction, CA Series amps can run full-tilt without even breaking a sweat and are stable down to .02 Ohms. Ashly’s SailFlow directed cooling system further helps to keep everything run cool. The Ashly Audio CA-502 delivers 500W x 2 at 2/4 Ohms and can even drive 70V or 100V loads when bridged. A compliment of front-panel Input level controls and LED indicators for amp status, plus Balanced Euroblock & XLR Combo input connectors, VCA control ports, switchable HPF & Limiter on each channel, Standby port and front panel lockout, gives the CA the flexibility to meet almost any system requirement. The CAs high-power, Low Z stability makes it ideal for large live performance speakers, even subwoofers.

For performance spaces, the CA Series can push hard and keep on pushing. Play it loud? No problem. Big subs? Bring ‘em on! CA can take it down to 2 Ohms without missing a beat (and without a drop- off in power). Run up to SIXTEEN 8-ohm loudspeakers from a single 4-channel CA amplifier.In commercial installations CA can deliver 70V and 100V power with no reconfiguration required. And choice of both XLR and Euroblock connectivity make the CA at home just about anywhere.
