Wireless UHF Microphones: Explorer PA systems may be equipped with one or two optional built-in wireless UHF receivers. The volume of each of the wireless receivers are controlled simply by pulling the dual function Mic 1 and Mic 2 volume control knobs. The wireless UHF microphone transmitters are available in a handheld version and/or a body-pack equipped with choice of lapel mic, collar mic, headband mic, or, an all new  barely seen over the ear UltraLite microphone. To avoid potential interference should several wireless sound systems be employed in close proximity, all UHF components have 16 agile user selectable channels. Typical transmission range is 300 ft.

Inputs: All Explorer Pro models feature two balanced/unbalanced Mic/Line  XLR -1/4" input jacks. A third line level source may be connected through a 1/4" jack, stereo RCA jacks or a 1/8" mini jack. The mini jack is particularly suited for Walkman style CD/cassette players that easily fits in a designated area above the control panel (see rear view picture below). Each of the three inputs have a separate volume controls providing the user full control over the mix.

Voice over Music:  As the ideal portable PA system, Explorer incorporates a Voice over music feature that allows the speaker to clearly be heard over music playback. When a microphone input is activated, the line level input (usually music from a CD or cassette player) automatically is attenuated 12 dB.

Outputs: The rated power output is 60 watts in AC mode and 30 watts in DC mode. With a wired unpowered companion loudspeaker, the rated power output is 80 watts in AC mode and 60 watts in DC mode. However, with the use of wireless microphones there is no limit to how many wireless Explorer PA systems may be employed, as long as these are placed within the transmission range of the wireless microphones. If music playback is desired for multiple wireless speaker applications, a special patch cord allows for hookup between a CD/cassette recorder and the belt-pack transmitter. For added flexibility, the the Explorer is also equipped with user adjustable bass and treble controls. In addition, the Explorer features a 1/4" line out as well as a left/right RCA recording output for those wishing to record an event.

Power Source: The new Explorer Pro is truly versatile with true AC/DC power supply and improved battery life of up to 6 hours of operating time. With a rapid charging circuit it recharges drained battery in as little as 60 minutes. It can also operate from a 12 volt power source such as an auto power port.
