Charging the Battery
The XP106 has an internal, rechargeable battery capable of up to 20 hours
of continuous audio on a full charge. Even though the system may have some
charge when first taken out of the box, we recommend fully charging your
XPTO6 before first usmg the system.
To charge the battew:
0 Set the power switch to the
“OFF" posmon.
0 Connect the XP106 to an
AC power outlet using the
included power adapter.
0 Keep the system plugged in
until the Battery indicator
changes to green, indicating
the battery is fully charged.
The XP106 utilizes a sealed leadraoid gel cell battery. When not in use, the
battery will slowly selfrdischarge. if you are planning not to use the XP106
for a long period of time, it is adVised to fully charge the unit before storing.
it is also important to charge the unit every six months when not used. This
Will ensure a healthy battery and extend its life. it the battew is left With a
very low charge for an extended period of time, it is possible to recharge the
battery to working condition, but the charge time can take over 24 hours.
it you find that the operation time of the XP106 becomes noticeably
decreased, even after fully charging, the battery should be replaced. Contact
Samson customer servrce or your local distributor for a replacement battew.
XP106 I Portable PA System 13
Speaker Placement
The XP106 oroVides three different placement options for your specific
situation.
For maximum sound covemge the XP106
can be used with a standard 13/3" speaker
stand. The speaker should he raised above
the heads of the listening audience. Take
care when placing the speaker on a stand,
to ensure that it is on a level, steady surface
and Will not tip over.
Take care when placing the XP106 in direct sunlight for long periods of time,
as this may discolor or damage the unit.
Do not piace the speaker on wet surfaces, as it can cause malfunction. If you
notice condensation on the unit, dry the speaker before using or storing.
14
Avoiding Feedback
Feedback is the annoying Imwliligand squealing that can heard when the
microphone picks up sound from the speaker. The sound is then reramplified
back through the speaker again, creating a feedback loop. Follow these steps to
minimize the likelihood of feedback:
0 Avaid pointing the microphone directly at the speaker. In general it is
recommended that the microphone be positioned behind the speaker
enclosure. This uses the directional characteristics of the speaker and
microphone to your advantage.
0 Keep the microphone as far from the speaker as possible. This will help
achieve isolation between the speaker and the microphone, and allow you
to increase the output of the XP106.
I Position the microphone as close to the sound source as possible. This
Will enable the microphone to pick up more direct sound, and allow you to
reduce the microphone input gain control.
I Reduce the overall level of the speaker.

Using the LINE OUT Jack
The XP106 LINE OUT jack allows you to connect the XP106 with any powered
speaker to expand your system or link two XP106 systems together and share
all inputs between the two units. You can also use thejack to receive audio
from another speaker without using an input channel.
Daisy chain Speaker
Using a standard shielded Va instrument cable, connect the LINE OUT on the
XP106 to a line level input of second powered speaker. The XP106 Will send a
mix of all inputs, including Bluetooth® audio. Each channel LEVEL will control
corresponding output level to the LINE OUTyack.
Linking two XPI 05 Systems
To use two XP106's as one system is simple. Just connect each side using a
standard W Shielded instrument cable to the LINE OUT Jack located on each
XP106 rear panel. Both mixers and the microphones or instruments connected
to each of the individual XP106 systems will be heard in both speakers.
Auxiliary Line Input
The LINE OUT iack can be used to accept any line level Input source This
input does not have a level control, so you must utilize the output level of the
connected device to control the level of the audio in the XP106.
