Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Expedition XP150 Portable PA System from Samson!
The XP150 features a compact, 5-channel mixer with 150 watts of onboard power and
dual 2-way speakers, making it an ideal solution for a variety of small- to medium-sized
PA applications. The XP150 is also extremely portable, thanks to its lightweight and
unique "Slide and Lock" design.
The 5-channel mixer can be removed from the speaker for tabletop use. It features
three inputs for connecting microphones, plus one channel for connecting a stereo
signal from an MP3 player, or other electronic device. There's also a built-in digital ef-
fects processor to add reverb to your voice or instrument. The mixer provides a robust
output, with 150 watts total power from the lightweight, Class D amplifier section.
The XP150 employs a matched speaker system with dual 2-way enclosures that have
proprietary 6-inch woofers and 1-inch high frequency drivers. To help project sound
to a larger audience, the XP150 speakers can be mounted on standard speaker stands,
thanks to the integral pole mount receptacles. The XP150 is constructed using durable
ABS high impact plastic, making it super road tough and, at the same time, light-
weight.
