(Dave Molter | Posted 2010-11-19)
Samson Technologies announces availability of the
Expedition 40iw wireless portable PA system, the newest addition to
the Expedition family and the first to feature a built-in
wireless microphone system and a rechargeable battery.
Samson makes public address simple with an all-in-one portable sound system that offers everything you need to deliver a professional and memorable presentation: The Expedition 40iw.
To ensure pristine, full-range sound, the Expedition 40iw (XP40iw) employs a 6-inch woofer and a 1-inch high frequency driver. The unit features a 40 watt Class D amplifier that is perfectly matched to the driver for high efficiency and low current draw. It provides a built-in VHF wireless microphone system that’s ideal for any number of vocal applications. An internal iPod dock with level control also gives you the option of incorporating songs or other MP3s into your performance. Plus, with bass and treble control you can tweak your sound to appropriately match your specific setting and audience.
A rechargeable battery provides the XP40iw with absolute mobility. In addition, a 1/4-inch link in/out jack allows for linking two systems together to create a stereo setup. Lastly, as this stand-mountable PA is also extremely lightweight, it enhances the portability of the system. The XP40iw even has a convenient integral top handle for easier transport.
High-quality components, professional features and convenient portability make Samson’s XP40iw a consummate single system solution to a wide range of public address applications, including tour groups, classrooms, conference/meeting rooms, health clubs, outdoor events and even small auditoriums.
"The XP40iw sound system is perfect for any occasion where great
sound and portability are a must," said Mark Wilder, Director of
Marketing for Samson Technologies. "Setup is a snap, so
it's easy to use at a backyard party Saturday night and to fire
up the troops at a Monday morning sales meeting.”
The portable, yet powerful, XP40iw pumps out 40 watts of crystal
clear, full-range sound from a lightweight Class D amplifier and
features a 6-inch woofer with titanium dome compression driver. Users
can also plug in additional mics or instruments to the XP40wi's
two channel inputs or link two XP40wi systems together for stereo
sound.
The Samson Expedition XP40wi is available now in Best Buy stores and
online at www.Bestbuy.com for $299.99.
