Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

CDL12P is a powered, active two-way loudspeaker that combines point-source and line-array approaches through constant directivity. Eight 2-inch high-frequency drivers arc above a 12-inch woofer, creating a shared acoustic axis when multiple cabinets are stacked. Its focused pattern is designed to keep SPL consistent across the frequency range on and off axis, supporting clear speech and natural music reproduction throughout a venue. Integrated rigging, dual-angle pole mounting and Dante networking support flexible system deployment.
