The biggest, loudest, and best sounding portable IP67 speaker that actually floats

Altec Lansing, innovator in audio, launches the Xpedition 8 in Australia. The XPEDITION 8 party speaker is the latest in Altec Lansing’s line of durable, environment-battling speakers. The Xpedition 8 is the biggest, loudest, and best sounding portable IP67 speaker that actually floats. The speaker was designed to float in a position where the woofers and tweeters do not hit the water so the sound is just as good in the water as it is on land.

 

Largest & loudest

As consumers continue to want bigger speakers, Altec Lansing has delivered with the Xpedition 8 – this Bluetooth speaker delivers big sound and is the largest in its category. Move bodies anywhere with 420 Watts of peak power. Fitted with Dual 8" woofers with passive radiators for massive bass and three 1” Tweeters.

Everything Proof

Its IP67 rating means confidence and trust in its ability to defend against dust, dirt, water and just about anything else that can be thrown at it. Designed to float in a position where the woofers and tweeters do not hit the water so the sound is just as good in the water as it is on land. In addition to floating the XPEDITION 8 can withstand submersion in one meter of water for 30 minutes.

Turn any place into a party

The speaker is also equipped with a multi-colored LED lightshow, including strobe lights; the lights are actually effected by the music and have multiple modes, including locking in to one specific colour as well as turning them off completely

Total portability
