However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The PreSonus CDL Sub18 Subwoofer is a powerhouse when it comes to delivering deep, punchy bass. With its integrated 1000-watt Class D power amp, this subwoofer ensures a tight and coherent low-end that will bring your music to life. But what sets the CDL Sub18 apart is its unique ported design, which maximises efficiency without compromising on its compact form-factor.
Product Ref: 275181
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.
The CDL Sub 18 comes with an integrated PDA-1000, a robust 1,000W Class D power amplifier with onboard DSP. This powerful amplifier provides the necessary drive for the subwoofer, ensuring optimal performance. For more advanced applications, the CDL Sub 18 can be connected to a standard LAN network and remotely controlled using the Worx Control software for macOS and Windows.
This allows for precise control over compression, limiting, and delay, with the ability to group and manage speakers individually or together. Performance monitoring indicators also enable remote monitoring of temperature and signal levels.
The CDL Sub 18 is a versatile subwoofer that appeals to both musicians and AV integrators. Its powerful bass performance and compact design make it an ideal choice for both installed and mobile sound applications. With its integrated pole mount, the CDL Sub 18 supports ground-stacked systems with up to two CDL12 loudspeakers mounted on top.
When additional bass is required for mobile applications, two CDL Sub 18 subwoofers can be rigged together, along with a single CDL12 loudspeaker using a 19-inch subpole. For suspended applications, the CDL Sub 18 offers integrated pin-loaded rigging, allowing for the flying of up to five CDL Sub 18 subwoofers or the suspension of two CDL Sub 18 subwoofers with five CDL12 loudspeakers below. This versatility ensures that the CDL Sub 18 can meet the demands of any professional concert-level sound reinforcement application.
The PreSonus CDL Sub 18 subwoofer not only delivers articulate low-end performance but also offers versatile connectivity and an aesthetically pleasing design in a compact form factor. This makes it an excellent choice for serving as the low-frequency foundation in both mobile and installed applications.
With its integrated rigging hardware and pole mount, the CDL Sub 18 pairs perfectly with the PreSonus CDL12, extending low-frequency reproduction with coherent phase response and an efficient, powerful design. Whether you're a musician or an AV integrator, the CDL Sub 18 offers the flexibility and quality needed to elevate your sound reinforcement applications to a professional concert level.
