PreSonus CDL12P Constant Directivity Sound Reinforcement Loudspeaker

Powerful Consistency - PreSonus CDL12P Constant Directivity Sound Reinforcement Loudspeaker

The CDL12 loudspeakers impressed ears around the world when PreSonus introduced them, thanks in no small part to their unique, patent-pending driver design that fills venues with consistent, articulate speech and music reproduction without sacrificing consistent SPL. Now that same constant-directivity performance is available in the new CDL12P, a lighter-weight design ideal for touring bands and mobile DJs who want the same scalability and sonic performance in portable design.

• Highly focused pattern with consistent SPL throughout the frequency response range, both on- and off-axis
• Consists of eight 2-inch drivers aligned in a segmented circular-arc high-frequency array centered in front of a 12-inch woofer
• (8) 2-inch high-frequency drivers arc over a single 12-inch woofer, comparable to the coaxial driver configuration found on top studio monitors. The result is better sonic coherence across the entire venue
• Point-source/line-array design delivers focused sound with consistent SPL coverage both on- and off-axis, making it an excellent choice for mobile and installed applications
• Patent-pending constant-directivity design of the PreSonus® CDL12P delivers exceptional performance and versatile configuration options in a visually stunning, compact form factor
