Power your speakers with the latest amplifier technology with the Ashly MA250.8, an 8-channel power amplifier that delivers 250W of power per channel. The amplifier incorporates Ashly's proprietary advanced intelligent power-sharing and ultra-efficient D-MAX amplifier technology for the cleanest and most reliable performance with lower power draw. Additionally, the MA250.8's multi-mode capabilities allow it to accommodate different speaker types, switchable per channel from Low Z (2, 4, and 8 ohms) to Hi Z (25, 70, or 100V).
The MA250.8 is 2 RU and can be mounted into a standard 19" rack enclosure. The rear panel features removable Euroblock input and output connections as well as remote VC ports and switchable 80 Hz HPF and Clip Limiter on each channel. The front panel provides a volume control knob for each channel and comprehensive LED indicators for levels and amplifier status.
Advanced intelligent power sharing dynamically distributes power to channels where needed and adapts to varying conditions. Power sharing allows the amplifier to balance power between channels to match asymmetrical speaker loads. The advanced AI-based power sharing picks up where other amplifiers leave off by intelligently and automatically adapting to your varying power demands.
You can operate as many as any three MA amps on a single 20A service. Ashly optimized active air cooling using a newly developed SailFlow design, which moves the air along a selective path, to where it's needed most. Coupled with the new Ashly-engineered ultra-high-speed switching power-supply, the use of high-speed, lossless Silicone-Carbide switches, and intelligent power management, the end-result is nothing short of stunning.
