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.
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, 8Ωand
16Ωratings:
• XP Series 8Ω+ any 4Ωspeaker = 2.6Ωload total
•XP Series 8Ω+ any 8Ωspeaker = 4Ωload total
•XP Series 8Ω+ any 16Ωspeaker = 5.3Ωload total
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
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 2Ωspeaker will be twice that of a
4Ωspeaker and 4 times that of a 8Ωspeaker.
Consider this when positioning speakers linked in a
“daisy-chain.”

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.

There are several things to
consider when placing loud-
speaker cabinets. First
determine the horizontal
coverage requirements for
the room. When used in a
typical auditorium setting,
position the speakers as
shown in Fig. B. Ensure
adequate sound levels reach
each seat in the audience by
walking through the entire
auditorium—listen for any
gaps in coverage then reposition speakers as nec-
essary. Recheck sound coverage with a full audi-
ence in attendance, if possible.
The XP Series horn has a horizontal coverage
angle of 70ºand a vertical coverage of 35º; bass
speakers are nearly
omnidirectional.
When setting up
your XP Series
enclosures as a
“single unit,”aim
the cabinets 70°
apart as shown in
FIG. C, for 140°
of horizontal cov-
erage.
Other considera-
tions include
bass frequency
performance and
feedback...
When a XP
speaker is placed
near a wall, there
will a low-fre-
quency boost of
up to 3dB. The
drawback is that
close proximity to
a wall may also cause feedback.
To avoid feedback: Increase the distance
between speakers and the feedback source
whether it is a wall, a microphone, or a guitar. Use
cardioid–pattern microphones to help block feed-
back. Always keep microphones
pointed away from speakers.
Sound quality is often compro-
mised when a sound system is
required to be hidden from
sight. Remember that the
location of your loudspeaker
cabinets will affect sound qual-
ity and coverage area more than
any other factor.
Power and audio signal cables are a
common sources of sound system fail-
ure. Quality cables, carefully maintained,
are essential to the reliability of the entire
sound system. Long cable connections
or cables supplying multiple speaker
cabinets must be of a sufficient gauge to
transfer all of the available amplifier
power to the speakers. As a rule, thick-
er cables (lower gauge numbers) are
more efficient because they absorb less
power themselves.
Prevent power loss and the degradation of signal quality by
using the recommended cable gauges below.
Cable that suppplys one cabinet, such as the cable to the last
cabinet in a “daisy-chain”:
• Up to 50-feet requires 18-gauge cable
•Up to 100-feet requires 16-gauge cable
Cable that suppplys two cabinets, such as the cable from the
amp to the first cabinet in a “daisy-chain”:
•Up to 25-feet requires 18-gauge cable
•Up to 50-feet requires 16-gauge cable
•Up to 100-feet requires 14-gauge cable
