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 amplier 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.

In this manual, you’ll nd a detailed description of the features of the XP150 PA system,

as well as a description of its front and rear panels, step-by-step instructions for its

setup and use, and full specications. You’ll also nd a warranty card enclosed—please

Features

• The XP150 is a compact PA system with dual 2-way speakers, onboard mixer, and

150 watt power amplier.

• The XP150 is the ultimate in portability. The lightweight, clever design allows you

to slide and lock the two speakers together to carry all components together in a

single, easy to move case. The mixer is stored in one of the speaker cabinets. The

second cabinet has a compartment for storing the speaker cables, microphones,

and other accessories.

• The speakers are 2-way vented enclosures with 6-inch woofers. Each is compli-

mented by a 1-inch high frequency driver, and set in a custom horn with a 60 x 90

degree coverage pattern producing a clean, clear sound.

• The XP150 speaker cabinets feature a tilt back monitor position for use without

speaker stands or as a performance monitor.

• The internal 2 x 75 watt lightweight Class D power amplier produces a powerful

stereo sound.

• The XP150’s mixer can be removed from the speaker for tabletop use.

• The 5-channel mixer features three Mic/Line inputs allowing you to connect micro-

phones or line signals. In addition, one stereo input channel allows you to connect

line level signals from keyboards, drum machines and MP3 or CD players. You can

engage the Phantom Power switch if you are using condenser microphones.

• On each of the mixer’s channel inputs there is a Bass and Treble control allowing

you to equalize the tone of the individual inputs.

XP150 Quick Start

8. Start talking or playing into channel 1 while slowly adjusting the VOL control until

you have reached the desired level. Do the same for each channel you are using.

9. If you notice that the POWER/PEAK indicator is lighting constantly, turn the

MASTER volume down so that the indicator only lights occasionally.

10. To add depth to the mix or smooth out the vocals, you can apply reverb to chan-

nel 1–3. To do this, press the REV button on the channel(s) to which you would like

to add the eect.

11. Slowly turn up the REVERB knob until the desired sound is reached.

12. To alter the tonal characteristic of the signal, you can adjust the LF

(bass) and HF (treble) controls. If you nd the audio too muddy,

you may want to reduce the LF control. If you nd that the audio

sounds dull, you can increase the HF control. There is no right or

wrong way to EQ a sound. You should listen to how the mix sounds

in the room and ne-tune to your liking.
