PreSonus CDL12 Full Range 2-Way 2000 Watt Line Array Loudspeaker with Dante

The PreSonus CDL12 is the result of years of research and development, combining the best attributes of point source and line array technology into a unique patent-pending design. Based on the Constant-Directivity Two-Way Loudspeaker System design presented at the 143rd AES Convention in New York by Hugh Sarvis and Don Keele, the CDL12 radiates a highly focused pattern with consistent SPL throughout the frequency response range, both on- and off-axis. The result is clear, articulate speech intelligibility and natural music reproduction.

Key Features

• Each CDL12 consists of eight 2-inch drivers aligned in a segmented circular-arc high-frequency array centered in front of a 12-inch woofer creating a focused pattern that always radiates from the center, whether used individually or in a vertical array
• Hybrid point source/line array design delivers focused sound with consistent SPL coverage both on- and off-axis
• Dante networking capability provides easy integration into established audio networks
• Integrated PDA-1000 amplifier provides 2000W of peak power
• Onboard DSP can be remotely controlled via Worx Control software
