Sound: First of all I would like to say it's the best PA for the money how ever it's not very loud but it is as clear as a bell if ue doing a room of about 40-50 people you shoulbd be ok or a small party. Easy to use sets up in about 10 min or less Feature: it looked kind of cheep at first but you cant judge a book by the cover Ease of Use: Very easy to use and the sound is amazing for acoustic guitars & vocales Quality: I dont know how long it will last I just got it and I will use it about 2 times a week only time will tell Value: Worth every penny so far Manufacturer Support: No not yet The Wow Factor: not really Overall: I might get the bigger one but it would still be a Fender pasport this system is amazing.

Sound: My wife Kimberley uses the Fender 150 pro for her Zumba classes. These are generally small gym type settings (eg poor acustics). The music is Latin dance dumped into the PA from her IPod. Sound quality is pretty good, but It would be nice to have separate treble & bass controls instead of a single tone control for each channel. For its weight and portability there are few other choices. Kim transports it in a wheeled suitcase which works well for her. Feature: 1/4" sterio in works well for use with MP3 player or computer audio out. It packs up nicely into a self-contained carrier weighing around 30 pounds. Any typical male would just grab it and go, but Kim at around 102 lbs likes to use a spare suitcase. Reverb and indivual controls for each channel are nice. It has plenty of power for groups under 50 or 60. Ease of Use: Speaker stands help and it could really use a powered sub. It doesn't have a sub out, but it can be done. Quality: Appears solid ... no issues so far. Value: Good price for the features. Overall: Kim is very happy with this unit

Overall: The Fender Passport 150 PRO PA System has proven to be a capable system for the needs of our company. We use the system inside and outside with groups of people as large as 500 plus. The system is portable, reliable and functions even better than we expected. The customer service was outstanding in helping us make the selection. We highly recommend this product and this company. When we need to do such business again we will come back to this company without any reservations. You (zZounds.com)may use this as a recommendation if you wish. Many thanks for the great experience, many companies could learn from your customer service.

Sound: Sound quality is excellent. Using Shure microphones and cable with the equipment. The speaker mount holes do not quite match the stand inserts that come with the stands; however, removing the inserts - you can install the speakers on the stands though I would prefer it was 'tighter' fit. Feature: The speaker cables that come with the unit are fine; however, they need to be approximately 8 to 12 feet longer. When the speaker stands are up to their full height, the cable lengths are naturally shorter and thence the speakers are too close to each other. Will make a trip to the store and purchase some speaker cable extensions or new, longer cables. Ease of Use: This unit is easy to setup and make adjustments to the sound (volume, tone, reverb). Quality: Very well made product. The quality control is excellent as far as finish and assembly. Well designed and compact. Due to my age and loss of strength, this unit is a very easy to move and setup compared to previous (Crate 750 watt amp, 2 Fender Monitors, 2 Sun speakers, and accessories). This unit is much lighter, one trip and compact to move. Value: I could have purchased this unit locally; however, I would have had to pay sales tax plus I would not have had the speaker stands included. The shipping charges - what do I say? There were not any! Manufacturer Support: Have not dealt directly with Fender. The ZZounds company is fantastic. Although, I have not had the pleasure of speaking with a customer service representative or an employee of ZZounds, they certainly have a great website and they follow-up with explicit details regarding the purchase, payments (when and how much) information, as well as shipping (tracking). The Wow Factor: This product is a very good, light-weight portable unit. I do not lust for any electronic/music equipment but do like the design and portability of the product. Overall: I can imagine that sometime in the future that I would like to upgrade to another Fender product with more wattage output. This unit is fine though I would like two more microphone inputs.

Sound: Sound of this PA is good, no problems with microphone sensitivity using XLR inputs, disappointed that this model no longer includes Voice Input Priority feature, which was a significant reason for its purchase (see below). Feature: Ordered this model, in part, because of internet reviews of this feature that is particularly useful for unattended PA operation using background music and intermittent microphone announcements. Fender should have changed the model number when this feature was dropped and/or zzsounds should have considered making this clear in its description. Like me, many people search for product reviews and information from many internet sources then purchase from a source based on price, reputation etc. even if their product descroption is limited. Ease of Use: The product is easy to set up, but I had to search for and buy an additional mixer (Shure SCM262) that provided the required voice input priority to mute background music automatically when a microphone is activated. Quality: Well-designed and well-made Value: Great value for money, especially with the free included speaker stands. Manufacturer Support: Disappointed that Fender could not suggest any solutions/vendors when they confirmed they no longer offered VIP on any of their PA amps. The Wow Factor: Efficient design of amp and speakers that can be easily packed and carried make it very suitable and robust for PA use in small venues by amateur operators. Overall: Overall, great value for money, good design and convenience. Would purchase again but would consider more powerful unit. Most disappointed by lack of voice input priority muting of background music that was a feature on previous units with same basic model number.

Overall: We finally made the quantum leap and upgraded our company PA system from a vintage 70's amplifier and some monstrous chest high particle board speakers with ornate orange fabric covering, to this eloquently designed compact solution. I mean Wow! Lot's of power, ultra compact, love the suitcase design (fits into the storage room nicely). Got the speaker stands and a dual stand bag. Now I can head to the company picnic with PA in one hand, and bag stand in the other, in contrast to the 'roadies' that were formerly recruited to carry equipment. Highly recommend the speaker stands to get the sound up and out. We've used it so far for an indoor company address to about 75 - 100 people. The system worked great, set up easily, and was very intuitive to operate. It's a high quality system and it shows. Next event is the company picnic in June, an outdoor event. I have no doubt it will do well. Very happy with it.
