Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Expedition Express battery-powered portable
sound system, featuring wireless Bluetooth®connectivity, to stream audio from
your smart phone, tablet, or computer. The Expedition Express is a complete
all-in-one solution providing the flexibility of a three-channel mixer (with inputs
for a microphone, instrument, and line level devices), a line output for linking
multiple speakers, and bass and treble tone controls.
Lightweight and compact, the Expedition Express weighs less than 10lbs mak-
ing it an excellent complement to any mobile speaker situation. The internal
battery provides eight hours of audio on a full charge. The Expedition Express
can also be powered by the included AC adaptor for continuous audio.
Whether you are looking for a sound system for use outdoors, in the classroom,
for karaoke, for presentations, or performing live music, the Expedition Express
provides high quality, portable audio in a small self-powered package.
We recommend you keep the following records for reference, as well as a copy
of your sales receipt.

Quick Start
Follow these steps below to quickly get started using your Expedition Express
portable sound system.
• Set the Expedition Express's power switch to the OFF position, and fully
turn all of the VOL controls counterclockwise to 0.
• If an outlet is available, connect the included power adaptor to the DC IN of
the speaker, and plug it into an AC socket.
• Connect a microphone using a standard XLR cable, instrument and line
level equipment using a 1⁄4" instrument cable, or portable audio device
using a 1⁄8" cable.
• Switch on the Expedition Express power.
• While speaking into the microphone, playing the instrument, or playing
music from a line level audio source, slowly raise the channel VOL until you
have reached the desired level.
NOTE: If not using the channel 1 input, turn the VOL control all the way down to
keep out any unwanted noise.
Using EQ
The Expedition Express feature a 2-band equalizer allowing you to adjust the
systems overall high and low frequencies. The system’s frequency response is
flat when the knobs are in the vertical or "12:00" position. Small movements of
the controls can make a big difference. Turning the controls all the way up can
cause distortion. Use your ears when adjusting the EQ to fit your application.
We have provided two example settings to help you get started fine tuning your
system.
Setting the EQ for Music
If you are using the Expedition Express for music
playback, turn up the BASS and TREBLE slightly
to produce a “hi-fi” frequency response that ac-
centuates the low and high ranges.
Setting the EQ for Vocal
If you are using your Expedition Express with a
microphone for speech only, you can reduce the
BASS and raise the TREBLE slightly, which will
produce a frequency response that accentuates
the vocal range.

Pairing with a
Bluetooth
®device
Bluetooth®is a wireless communication technology that allows for connectivity
between a wide range of devices. The Expedition Express uses Bluetooth to
stream high quality audio from your Bluetooth enabled device without the need for
connecting any cables. In order for your device to work with the Expedition Express
it must first be paired.
1. Turn all three channel VOL controls all down counterclockwise to 0.
2. With the Expedition Express and your Bluetooth device powered on; press
the PAIR button on the rear panel of the Expedition Express speaker to
make the speaker discoverable. The Bluetooth indicator will slowly flash
blue.
3. In the settings of your Bluetooth device, set it to “discover” available
devices.
4. From the Bluetooth device list, select the "Samson Express" device.
5. If your device asks for a passkey, enter digits 0000 (four zeros) and press
OK. Some devices may also ask you to accept the connection.
6. As the Expedition Express is connecting
to your device, the Bluetooth indicator will
quickly flash blue.
7. The Expedition Express speaker indicates
that pairing is complete when the indica-
tor turns steady blue. You can now stream
audio from your device to the Expedition
Express speakers.
8. With the volume control on your Bluetooth
device turned up, play some music, and
slowly raise the Expedition Express channel
3 VOL control until you have reached the
desired level.

Charging the Battery
The Expedition Express has an internal, rechargeable battery capable of eight
hours of continuous audio on a full charge. Even though the system may have
some charge when first taken out of the box, we recommend fully charging
your Expedition Express before first using the system.
To charge the battery:
• Set the power switch to the
“OFF” position.
• Connect the Expedition
Express to an AC power outlet
using the included power
adapter.
• Keep the system plugged in
until the CHARGE indicator
changes to green, indicating
the battery is fully charged.
The Expedition Express utilizes a sealed lead-acid gel cell battery. When
not in use, the battery will slowly self-discharge. If you are planning not to
use the Expedition Express for a long period of time, it is advised to fully
charge the unit before storing. It is also important to charge the unit every six
months when not used. This will ensure a healthy battery and extend its life.
If the battery is left with a very low charge for an extended period of time, it
is possible to recharge the battery to working condition, but the charge time
can take over 24 hours.
If you find that the operation time of the Expedition Express becomes
noticeably decreased, even after fully charging, the battery should be
replaced. Contact Samson customer service or your local distributor for a
replacement battery.
