Fender Passport 150 PRO Portable PA System

With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.

cannot be beat for the price!
I and my wife have a regular Saturday night gig. We had been using the house pa system but were unhappy with the mix,the monitoring, etc.

We wanted to sound our best so started looking for our own pa so we could duplicate the sound that we were getting in my studio during practice. The pa had to be small/light but capable of filling a 125 seat room with loud diners/dancers.

We do a mix of Clapton, Dire Straits, some 80's hair band songs and even a few Ozzy songs depending upon the crowd.

I build very nice backing tracks in my studio and then sing lead vocals and play lead guitar live. She sings harmonies.

We needed 2 mike inputs, an input for my zoom g2 (dont carry an amp around anymore)and an input for my netbook (plays my tracks).

We set the fender up in my studio with the speakers behind us and set the mix. The sound was amazing for a 30+ pound unit.

The next Saturday we set the unit up at our gig with the speakers...

Love it!
For a small PA is is awesome. I use it for electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and for music. It sounds great on everything! Very versatile and the portability is great. I use it mostly for amp and guitar modeling with my Line 6 Pod x3 and Variax, and again is the best. If you play live and outsideI would recommend the more powerful models(300 & 500). For a small indoor show it is great. Good lows and good highs and you can tweak the tone a little and add reverb. It snaps together in two shakes and even has a compartment for cables. It is about the size of a small suitcase and weighs about 30 lbs. The upper models have a subwoofer out which would be pretty handy if playing a larger show. But, again if you need something for a small indoor venue for guitar, singing, or public speaking of some sort this will be more than enough. I give it 5 stars!
Good but noisy
I was in a pinch so I had to buy one of these from a retail store. Amazon's current price is well over $100 less -- Amazon rocks!

As far as the product itself..... the reviewer that stated the 1/4 in mic input is not loud enough is spot on. The XLR input works great though.

For me, I find the unit to be a bit noisy. It has a fairly significant hum when simply powered on with no sources connected to it, and as you connect sources that hum gets a bit more pronounced. For most applications this hum will not be a show stopper, because the sound will be turned up well enough to cover this noise.

Other than this noise floor, the sound quality is good. Puts out decent bass despite small speaker size, and probably puts out more than the stated wattage.
