Positioning and Mounting Instructions
General Positioning Tips
•  Operating a microphone or turntable in front of a speaker is a sure formula for 
feedback and/or rumble problems, so always place the Expedition Pro in front 
of any mics or turntables that are being used.
•  Use the Expedition Pro upright for all “front-of-house” PA applications; use it in 
its tilt-back position only for onstage monitoring.
•  Always raise the speakers as high above the audience as is practicable for maxi-
mum coverage.
•  Use sufficient enclosures for the space you’re in.  The larger the space, the more 
speakers will be required.
Pole-Mounting
The underside of the Expedition Pro contains a 1-3/8" stand mount socket that 
allows it to be raised up on any standard speaker pole mounting (such as the 
Samson TS50 or TS100 speakers stands).  Pole-mounting is generally advisable 
when you want to maximize the distance that the Expedition Pro covers (some-
times called speaker “throw”).
If you are using an DB1500 subwoofer, you can use its integral pole mount to place 
an XPL100, XPL200 or XPL300 immediately above it, creating a complete column 
of sound.
Fly Mounting, Wall Mounting, and Ceiling Mounting
As shown in the illustration below, the top panel of the Expedition Pro contains a 
number of fly points, located in compartments to the left and right of the wireless 
receiver compartment.  The covers placed over these compartments are simply 
attached with double-sided sticky tape, so just pull up to remove.
