The PreSonus CDL12 represents the culmination of extensive research and development efforts, blending the advantages of point source and line array technologies into an innovative patent-pending configuration. Its distinctive design delivers clear, intelligible speech and natural music reproduction, boasting a highly focused pattern with consistent SPL across the frequency spectrum, both on and off-axis.

Each CDL12 unit features eight 2-inch drivers arranged in a segmented circular-arc high-frequency array positioned in front of a 12-inch woofer. By aligning the low-frequency driver's output with the high-frequency array along the same acoustic axis, the pattern consistently radiates from the center. This remains true whether the CDL12 is used independently or as part of a vertically arrayed system with up to six enclosures. This unique design circumvents the near-field irregularities that often impact traditional line arrays, swiftly transitioning to a far-field response as soon as sound is projected from the enclosure's center.

The CDL12 comes equipped with integrated pin-loaded rigging hardware, facilitating quick and effortless array setup. Additionally, it features a dual-angle pole mount, accommodating the use of one or two enclosures when pole-mounted on a tripod stand or atop the accompanying CDL18s subwoofer. For suspended applications, up to five CDL12 enclosures can be flown beneath one or two CDL18s subwoofers. When flown without a subwoofer, six CDL12 loudspeakers can be arrayed to create a perfectly symmetrical 120˚ x 120˚ configuration.
