Fender is proud to
introduce the next generation of portable sound systems:
the Passport Deluxe 150 and 250. At the core of the Deluxe series is
a highly evolved loudspeaker design; the Deluxe Speaker Array (DSA). Fender
co-developed the proprietary speaker component and enclosure designs with one
of the most prominent and innovative loudspeaker technology companies in the
world.
The sound of the Deluxe series is remarkable.
It sounds more like a home theatre than a PA system. Our proprietary design
delivers high fidelity audio with wide horizontal projection, remarkable
clarity and truly impressive imaging; characteristics not typically found in a
traditional PA cabinet. The advancements in the sound performance of the deluxe
speaker design are realized while maintaining the high gain before feedback
characteristics that make Passport systems the choice of tens of thousands of
users worldwide. If you are serious about the sound of your performance, you
owe it to yourself to use one.

I'm not a sound expert but it is easy to transport, easy to set up, and provides sound that's great as far as I can tell. Connections are logical and well marked, and the manual is clear and detailed. I wondered about the latches, but they are durable enough also, the overall weight of the unit is less than I was expecting. My only suggestion would be for a more sturdy arrangement for the door to the storage compartment for the cords, it seem to be straining as the cords push against it to get out--but so far that has held up too. All in all, I'm please with my purchase because it's done the job for me.
