Ever heard of Trade Show Exhibitor's Floor Attention Cannibalism (TSEFAC)? We were checking out the new Samson Expedition XP308i Portable PA System when some other dude at the same booth fired up the very same system and launched into his coffee-house acoustic set. At least we know the thing works.

  • I tried these but found they weren't very clear for DJing. It might have been because the pair I tested were use though.

  • @walkman88us I used a powered subwoofer with a line passthru

  • how did you add the subwoofer without a output?

  • the yamaha stagepas sounds waaay better than this thing. it also handles peaks a lot better, and it's louder, and clearer. the xp308i gets reeally hot after a few minutes of use. it's decent for the price, but i'd still go for a yamaha if i can afford it. we did shootouts with gear all the time, and there is a reason some stuff is cheaper. when it comes to pro audio, you don't want to go cheap.

  • Sounds much the same as the Yamaha StagePas 300. Wonder how the two compare to each other?

  • I have just added a suwoofer to the system and it is very impressive. I used the yorkville ls200p 10 inch powered bandpass one due to its small size.

    Matched very well size wise, its carpeted and not abs like the samsons. Has a 35mm pole mount on the top just like the xp308i.

    you can run the speaker cable as a pass thru to get signal.

  • I got these speakers the other day, I must say I am very very impressed with them. I used them in a 70 bay mechanics shop (200ft X 200ft) They are loud, clear and the sound projects very far. The bass is pretty good for something so small. I have only a few problems.

    1: no subwoofer output

    2: the cables that came with it suck, they have breaks in the cable already so I need to upgrade them

    3: no protection when the mixer is stored in the back of the unit Overall, it was well worth it

  • Of course. What speaker system would be complete without an Ipod dock...
