I've had one for about a year and a half. Works great for us. Electric piano goes into the expander, vocal mic #2 goes into it also, and a powered Peavey speaker with Yamaha mixer (for acoustic guitar/cordless mic) goes into it. It all comes out of the Fishman tower. We love the sound.

I haven't traveled with it, but the first time I put the whole thing up from the start clocked in at about 11 minutes.

I'm really sold on the whole Fishman 330 system. We have the bass speaker also.

Good luck! There aren't a ton of SA330x users here--although it's very highly regarded--and I imagine there are even fewer with the expander. Looks like a no-brainer to me. Hope you report back no later than July!

The SA Expand unit is a very good thing to have with the SA330x.
The SA Sub less so for acoustic music.
I use the sub more as a small footprint support base for the main unit on small stages.

It does seem to be currently out of stock everywhere. Bummer. Good luck getting yours.

I have a 330x. It's out for repair/possible replacement at the moment. But, I tried to get the expander and couldn't find it anywhere this year. So, I ended up ordering the Yamaha MG10XU. So when I need more channels or mixing, I can use the Yamaha with either the 330x and/or the K8.2 I have.

I have both the sub and expander. Both work well and the sub does add depth, but you need to adjust the cutover.
