Product Description
- Unique port design for optimised bass reproduction The CDL Sub 18 subwoofer from PreSonus features an innovative port configuration that maximizes efficiency and delivers a big bass sound from a compact cabinet. With four triangle-shaped ports strategically placed in the corners the CDL Sub 18 take advantage of the side walls to build out the ports effectively elongating them and allowing for the movement of more air in a smaller enclosure. This unique porting design not only avoids port chuffing but also minimizes baffle reflections resulting in better phase coherence. The CDL Sub 18 is equipped with a custom 18-inch low-frequency transducer with a 4-inch voice coil that can handle 800W and travel 7 mm before over-excursion. Every aspect of the CDL Sub 18 has been carefully designed to ensure it packs a serious punch into its compact footprint. Onboard power amp and advanced controls The CDL Sub 18 comes with an integrated PDA-1000 a robust 1000W Class D power amplifier with onboard DSP.
