The 1000-watt PreSonus CDL12 delivers a clean sweep of accurate sound to more of your audience than any other 2-way active loudspeaker in its price range, thanks to a Constant Directivity array design with incredible 120 deg. horizontal dispersion.

Running CDL12’s is like having wide peripheral vision for your ears – smooth, coherent sound spreads wider on each side of the speaker than any comparably-priced 2-way design – instead of a narrow cone of sound, you get a detailed, 120 deg. horizontal panorama. Instead of a horn, CDL12’s employ an innovative vertical line array of 2-inch drivers, seamlessly joined on the low end with a 12-inch woofer. 1000 watts of Class D power deliver ample power reserves for tight control and explosive dynamics. Pole mount the CDL12; or fly up to six plus matching CDL18s subs. WorxControl network software and rear panel controls let you tweak settings… and the CDL12 is the only speaker at this price with Danteconnectivity.
