Samson xpl200 User Guide

The Samson Expedition Pro system uses state-of-the art 

technology to bring a revolutionary new degree of  flex-

ibility and portability to professional audio.  Its  main fea-

tures include:
•  A built-in telescoping handle and locking wheels that 

make it easier than ever before to transport your audio 

system.
•  All Expedition Pro enclosures are lightweight and  com-

pact yet exceptionally durable and  roadworthy.  Injection-

molded with Polypropylene, they feature substantial inter-

nal bracing to support a nearly 1/2" thick side wall con-

struction, making them strong and rigid enough to allow 

maximum energy to be delivered to the sound output. In 

addition, a steel grill and scuff-resistant  textured finish 

makes for a rugged speaker  enclosure that will deliver 

dependable performance in even the most demanding 

environments.
•  The low frequency section includes a custom designed 

12-inch low frequency driver with a 2.5-inch Kapton 

Former voice coil and 50 ounce barium ferrite magnet for 

accurate and super-tight bass response.
•  A high frequency section that delivers clear, sweet top 

end thanks to its 1-inch compression driver with a special-

ly designed 34mm titanium diaphragm for linear response 

and an elliptical wave guide horn design that reduces 

nearly all sonic diffraction.
• A tilt position that allows the Expedition Pro to be used 

as an onstage wedge monitor.
• Integral 1 3/8" pole-mount receptacle and convenient 

fly points allow the Expedition Pro to be pole-mounted or 

“flown” using standard PA hardware.
• The XPL100 is a passive cabinet that can be used with 

any power amplifier rated at up to 250 watts into 8 ohms.  

It requires no power and provides dual Speakon™ and 1/4" connectors that allow 

multiple XPL100s to be daisy-chained where extended coverage is required.

•  The XPL200 contains a 250 watt, light-weight, “class D” power amplifier and 

advanced crossover. Dual balanced XLR connectors allow daisy-chaining of mul-

tiple Expedition Pro enclosures, and a limiter circuit assures a clean output even 

when you’re pushing the XPL200 to maximum levels.  In addition, there are three 

stages of speaker protection, including relay switching for power on and off.

•  The XPL300 includes all the features of the XPL200, and adds a flexible four-chan-

nel stereo mixer that provides two monophonic and one stereo mic/line channels 

with dual XLR and 1/4"  connectors.  In addition, separate dual phono connec-

tors allow you to hook up an external cassette, MP3 or CD player. Each mixer 

channel includes two-band equalization and independent volume control, and 

there’s even built-in digital multi-effects processor for the addition of ten differ-

ent reverb, delay and chorus presets.  Balanced left and right XLR outputs allow 

daisy-chaining of multiple Expedition speakers (with a mono/stereo switch that 

allows operation in either mode), and a VU meter enables you to continuously 

monitor output levels.  The XPL200 and XPL300 also include a meter that shows 

battery level when used with the optional RB 2030 rechargable battery cartridge 

(see below).
