Description

The CDL12P 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 CDL12P 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.
Features
Continuous-directivity constant curve array with eight 2-inch cone drivers disperse sound an amazing 120° horizontally
15° vertical directivity can be extended from 30° up to 90° with additional arrayable CDL12Ps
12-inch, long-throw LF transducer with 2.5-inch voice coil
Low crossover point minimises comb filtering and enhances line array intelligibility
500 x 500 watts Class D power for high SPLs and lightning-fast transient response
Locking AC connector in and out
Balanced XLR input and output
90 High-pass filter
Array Mode (1-6 boxes)
Sub Mode (Off, CDL18s, ULT18, or AIR18s)
35 mm pole socket with 7.5° downward tilt for use with up to two CDL12P on a tripod or atop an 18-inch PreSonus® subwoofer (Note: a CDL18s must be used when two CDL12Ps are arrayed.)
Integrated flyware to create an array of up to six CDL12Ps
