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.
