Designed to complement any full-range PA loudspeaker and a perfect companion for the PreSonus CDL-series full-range loudspeakers, the CDL Sub18 subwoofer delivers a powerful, clear, and accurate low-end punch. With 2,000 watts (peak) of Class D power, a direct radiating, ported enclosure, and a custom 18-inch low-frequency transducer with 4-inch voice coil that provides 7 mm of driver travel before over-excursion, the CDL Sub18 produces detailed low-frequency performance audio for mobile and installed applications.
To provide maximum versatility with full-range systems, the CDL Sub18 features a variable lowpass filter, enabling you to accurately dial in the crossover transition between the subwoofer and full-range system. Two DSP presets provide extended low-frequency performance for a more natural response to suit a variety of applications. Onboard polarity invert facilitates cardioid array creation, and a Mono Mode function simplifies cabling multiple mono subs in a stereo system.
Like full-range CDL-series loudspeakers, the CDL Sub18 has a rugged, tour-grade enclosure. A locking IEC power connector, M10 rigging points, integrated castor provisions, and ground-stacking provisions make it a great choice for a wide variety of mobile and install applications. One XLR line-level input and one XLR direct line-level output are provided to connect full-range systems or multiple subwoofers in larger systems.
