Presonus 18" Dante Enabled Active Subwoofer - Product Information
The Presonus 18" Dante Enabled Active Subwoofer adds some seriously tight and focused bass punch to you sound system in a compact enclosure. The enclosure features 4 front facing triangular bass ports. This design allows the CDL18 to move more air while keeping the compact small footprint design. This configuration also avoids port chuffing while minimizing baffle reflections to deliver better phase coherence. The small footprint design allows for both installed and mobile sound applications. An integrated pole mount supports ground-stacked systems with up to two CDL12 loudspeakers mounted up top. Need more bass from your mobile application? Rig two CDL18s subwoofers together and mount a single CDL12 loudspeaker using a 19-inch sub pole. Integrated pin-loaded rigging makes it easy to fly up to five CDL18s subwoofers, or suspend two CDL18s subwoofers with five CDL12 loudspeakers below creating concert level sound quality.
Inside the CDL18 is a an integrated PDA-1000, a heavy-duty 1000W Class D power amplifier with robust onboard DSP. That Digital Signal Processing is powered by Worx Control providing speaker-management tools that include compression, limiting, and 800 ms of delay. Speakers can be grouped and managed individually or together. Performance monitoring indicators allow you to monitor temperature and signal levels remotely. A locking Ethernet connection on the integrated PDA-1000 power amplifier provides audio networking capability via Dante, a multi-channel digital media networking technology delivering near-zero latency and synchronization, essential in field PA systems.
