Fender ® XP Loudspeaker Systems

The Fender® 110XP, 112XP, and 115XP two-way, professional quality loudspeaker systems are designed to form the basis of everything from a public address system permanently installed, to the nightly rigors of a working band’s portable sound system. Add ultra-deep bass to the your XP Series Loudspeaker System with a Fender 115sA or 118sA Subwoofer Loudspeaker System.

Features of XP Artist Series Loudspeakers:

•Great fidelity using a trapezoidal cabinet design

•Moisture sealed 5/8” particle board cabinet

•Pole-mount sockets

•Two high-current, 1/4” phone jacks to enable “daisy-chain” cabinet linking

•Dual piezoelectric compression drivers

•Silver grill cloth

•Metal corner protectors and glide feet

•Genuine Tolex® cabinet covering

•Compact and portable

•CAUTION: Speakers produce magnetic fields which may interfere with the operation of near- by electronic devices such as televisions and computers. Increase the distance between speakers and electronic devices to reduce inter- ference.

•WARNING: Fender loudspeaker systems are capable of producing very high sound pressure levels which may cause temporary or perma- nent hearing damage. Use care when setting and adjusting volume levels during use..

•No user serviceable part inside, refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

S p e a k e r

Each XP Series Loudspeaker cabinet is equipped with two 1/4" jacks. These standard phone jacks are wired in parallel, allowing either one to be used as the input; the other jack can then be used as output to an addition- al speaker cabinet in a "daisy-chain" connection scheme. Fig. A illustrates the XP system “daisy-chained” with Fender 115sA or 118sA Sub-woofers.

Using the recommend- ed speaker impedance load ensures optimum efficiency and signal

response. The total impedance load of a “daisy-chain” scheme can be adjusted by using speakers of differ- ent impedances. One of the results of mixing

Avoid damage to your equipment by ensuring that the total speaker impedance load is within the limits set

by the amplifier’s manufacturer. XP Series Speakers have an impedance of 8Ω. Listed below are the combined impedance loads of the XP Series loudspeaker connected in parallel with speakers of 4Ω, 8Ω and

16Ω ratings:

•XP Series 8Ω + any 4Ω speaker = 2.6Ω load total

•XP Series 8Ω + any 8Ω speaker = 4Ω load total

•XP Series 8Ω + any 16Ω speaker = 5.3Ω load total

speaker impedances

though, is that any speakers with lower impedance ratings will have a higher power

consumption and output. For example, the power use/output of a 2Ω speaker will be twice that of a 4Ω speaker and 4 times that of a 8Ω speaker. Consider this when positioning speakers linked in a “daisy-chain.”
