Samson XP208w Portable Rechargeable PA / Amplifier with Wireless Mic & Bluetooth
Compact, lightweight, rechargeable & has a great sound. The Expedition XP208w includes a Wireless Microphone too & the onboard Bluetooth lets you have your backing music right at hand!
Power & Build
The XP208w operates for up to 20 hours continuously via its built-in rechargeable battery. Its lightweight amplifier delivers 200 watts of power to an 8″ 2-way speaker system. All of this is housed in a rugged polypropylene enclosure with a steel grille, locking telescopic handle and smooth rolling wheels that weighs just under 24 pounds. Needless to say, transporting the XP208w is a breeze. Plus, a 1 3/8″ speaker mount allows the XP208w to be mounted using any standard speaker stand.
In The Mix
Equipped with a full-featured 4-channel mixer, the XP208w makes for quick and easy setup. Connect microphones, line-level devices, and for buskers, guitars directly to the XP208w. The speaker can also stream music wirelessly from any Bluetooth device. A variable reverb control adds depth, and a voiceover ducker automatically lowers the music when speaking or singing into a microphone (XLR or wireless inputs). In addition, a master 2-band EQ is provided to adjust the tonal characteristics of the XP208w, as is a line output to daisy-chain additional speakers.
Wires, Schmires
Included with the XP208w comes a Samson XPD2 Handheld Digital USB Wireless System (with USB extension cable). And thanks to the inclusion of two USB wireless ports, you can integrate a second XPD Series wireless system (sold separately) for multi-performer vocal and speech applications.
Make Connections
The XP208w’s 4-channel mixer features multiple input options with separate level controls, including an XLR-1/4″ combo channel (microphones and other Mic/Line level devices), a 1/4″ channel (guitars and other line level devices), an 1/8″ channel (MP3 players, keyboards, etc.), a USB Wireless channel for use with the Stage XPD1 system and a Bluetooth channel to wirelessly stream music from your smartphone, tablet or laptop. The XP208w also has a Line Out to cascade multiple systems together and expand your sound, as well as a Music/Speech switch for optimizing output EQ for speech or music playback.
Make Your Presentations Dynamic!
The XP208w is perfect for teachers, professors, instructors and lecturers alike. The included Stage XPD1 wireless system allows educators to make dynamic presentations and captivate audiences. In addition, the system’s 200 watts of power is able to fill medium to large classrooms with exceptional sound, while its lightweight design, convenient top carry handle and 20 hours of battery life make the XP208w ideal for tour guides and mobile lecturers.

Whether you’re at a backyard party, company picnic or just relaxing by the pool, the XP208w delivers a brilliant outdoor music listening experience. Pair the XP208w with your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth and DJ the party while in the midst of all the fun.

From Concerts to Karaoke
When it comes to live music, the XP208w is ideal for small venues such as coffee houses and studio spaces.

Perfectly fit for fitness applications, the XP208w can easily provide the power and performance needed to run small yoga classes and dance studios. The XP208w also excels in front of higher intensity exercise methods, including outdoor aerobics, Zumba and CrossFit. Use the Bluetooth or 1/8″ stereo Aux (MP3 player) channels to engage your favorite workout playlists, or pick up the wireless mic to provide you class with words of encouragement and motivation.
