When you travel with the Fender Passport series of PA systems, you'll be both roadie- and airline-approved. The four new Passport 500 Pro, 300 Pro (shown below), 150 Pro, and Executive portable PA systems take the best of previous Passport models and add new features and improved functionality.

The 500 Pro, 300 Pro, and 150 Pro systems offer natural-sounding reverb, an improved mixer and control layout with recessed LEDs, and a speaker enclosure with standard 35 mm stand sockets. Likewise, all but the 150 have a sub-out line, and just the 500 model includes USB playback and record features.

A step up from the other models, the Passport Executive sound system is about the size of a small briefcase, and is easy to use, set up, and travel with. Don't be fooled by its slim design; despite its size, the Executive delivers 100W of clear stereo sound via NXT flat-panel speaker technology. It comes with a laptop-style form-fitted travel bag.
