Presonus CDL12P Constant Directivity Sound Reinforcement Loudspeaker

In professional sound reinforcement, clarity, power, and precision are paramount. Whether you’re managing live performances, corporate events, or permanent installations, achieving consistent, high-quality audio coverage is essential. The Presonus CDL12 P Constant Directivity Sound Reinforcement Loudspeaker is engineered to meet these demands, delivering an exceptional combination of power, clarity, and versatility that ensures your audience hears every nuance with accuracy and impact.

One of the standout features of the CDL12 P is its bi-amped design, which separates the low-frequency and high-frequency drivers, each powered by a dedicated 500-watt program amplifier. This means that the 12-inch woofer and the array of eight 2-inch high-frequency drivers receive precisely the power they need to perform optimally without distortion or strain. For you, this translates into a loudspeaker that can maintain clear, balanced sound even at high volumes, preserving the quality of your audio in challenging environments.

The constant directivity technology built into this loudspeaker provides a 120-degree horizontal coverage angle and a narrow 15-degree vertical coverage. This focused dispersion pattern minimizes sound reflections from ceilings and floors, reducing unwanted reverberations and feedback. What this means for your event is a more controlled and intelligible sound field, ensuring that audiences receive consistent audio quality regardless of their position in the venue. This precision is further enhanced by DSP presets, including high-pass filters, array mode settings that optimize multiple speaker setups, and specific presets for pairing with Presonus subwoofers, giving you flexible control over your sound configuration.

With a frequency response ranging from 48 Hz to 18 kHz at -3 dB, the CDL12 P covers a wide audio spectrum, faithfully reproducing both deep bass and crisp highs. The crossover frequency is set at 420 Hz, allowing a smooth transition between the woofer and the high-frequency drivers. The loudspeaker’s maximum peak SPL of 130 dB ensures it can handle loud, dynamic performances without distortion, making it suitable for medium to large venues. For practical use, the enclosure is constructed from durable 15 mm polypropylene ABS with a steel grille, providing ruggedness while maintaining a manageable weight of 63 pounds. Its dimensions—18.6 inches in height, 20.8 inches in width, and 17.5 inches in depth—make it compact enough for easy transport and installation without sacrificing acoustic performance.

Installation options are versatile, with pole mounting and flying capabilities, allowing you to adapt the speaker to different setups, whether as a front-of-house monitor, part of a hanging array, or a standalone unit. The PowerCON input/output connectors simplify power distribution across multiple units, reducing cable clutter and setup time. The single channel mixer integration and XLR input/output connections ensure compatibility with a wide range of professional audio equipment, making it a seamless addition to existing systems.

Whether you’re a touring professional seeking reliable, high-output speakers or a venue manager looking for consistent sound coverage, the Presonus CDL12 P delivers on performance and durability. Its combination of advanced DSP features, powerful bi-amped drivers, and precise directivity makes it an ideal choice for environments where sound quality cannot be compromised. Invest in the CDL12 P and experience enhanced sound reinforcement that empowers your events to sound as impactful and clear as intended.
