Rel T/9x Subwoofer
Series T/x is instantly seen as crisper, fresher, a full upgrade. Rel's goals were not simply to improve upon its illustrious predecessor, but to deliver as much as possible of the latest Series S on a budget. Faster, more transparent sounding system performance awaits you with higher output levels and even greater impact.
Series T/9x: Bigger AND Better The TX Series Flagship
The job of any range topper for REL is to deliver more of everything, particularly output and dynamics. The 9x is no different in this regard, as it delivers the goods in both music and theatre applications. 9x, however, delivers a level of intimacy, clarity and speed that means there are no longer trade-offs between the sonic balance of smaller models weighed against the power and scale of a model 9.
The all new 9x has even greater output than before, but the headline news is the way it sacrifices nothing in clarity and transparency to achieve this. At this price it opens the pathway for owners of high performance European floor and stand mounted monitors and smaller panel speakers to enjoy truly full range sound.
REL T9x SE Version : Think of It as a Carbon Special for the Rest of Us.
Introducing T/9x Special Edition:
Experience the allure of Italian Racing Red Lacquer, the iconic shade that’s graced the most famous Italian sports cars. Pair this vibrant color with our beloved T/9x model, complemented by exquisite chrome feet and badges, and you have a must-own piece for any audio enthusiast. But the appeal goes beyond aesthetics. Beneath these striking exteriors lies a new carbon fibre centre cap that enhances the cone’s rigidity while reducing the moving mass of the 10” (250mm) driver. Less weights means more speed.
Reimagined, Then Reengineered - A Completely Redesigned Flagship
Many don’t realize the intense linkage between performance and design at REL. Performance is everything to REL and so it drives physical design revisions. The REL engineers, recognizing the need for greater acoustic volume to achieve the goals of greater fluidity and power, turn to the designer who works dimensions to fool the eye into seeing a smaller, more compact footprint even though cabinet volume increases. Using gently rounded corner radii that allows the eye to flow over and see less visual mass. The result is both modern and familiar with no unnecessary adornment.
Outsized Performance - Innovative Alloy/Fibre Bass Engines
To achieve higher output with better control requires a complete overhaul of the suspension components. Much like the suspension on a sports car, these items are responsible for the tuning and feel of the REL designs. By increasing the cabinet volume, efficiency is improved yielding higher output for no more amplifier power. Less back pressure inside the cabinet means it can be tuned for a stiffer, better controlled driver suspension. The best aspects of the previous T9i were retained, such as the aluminum center cap responsible for stiffening the lightweight 10” (250mm) cone while adding almost no mass. The updated combination produces considerably better attack and dynamics with greater transparency.
A REL’s essence lies in its driver, and we dedicate immense care and expertise to its design and refinement. The T/9x SE’s driver is no exception. The upgraded critical centre cap with carbon fibre, enhancing its stiffness for better bass articulation. By reducing its weight by 10 grams, we’ve achieved a faster response, and a notable 1.2 dB increase in output, making the T/9x SE faster, more dynamic, and just a skosh louder.
Tried and True Amplifiers - The Brains Behind the Brawn
The REL T9x retains the REL signature Class A/B amplifiers used in every generation of Series T since 2006. Reliability is the key to happy ownership and with some 200,000 and counting of this range leading long happy lives, Serie T/x owners can feel certain of REL’s standard setting reliability. The powerful 300 watt mosfet amplifier used in the T/9x remains an icon with huge reserves of current, massive power supplies but small upgrades are found everywhere. New driver mosfets that open up performance and transparency and new methods for securing the toroidal transformers mean better performance and superior strength.
REL’s legendary High Level Input connection and fast filters are a significant part of the REL story. Connecting via the speaker outputs of your amplifier without drawing any power from it may seem like magic, but the real magic lies in the way the sound takes on a natural character. Unique tuning and special limiters means the T/x range sounds fresher, faster and more dynamic than before.
Wireless That Doesn’t Compress the Sound - Unlimited Possibilities
REL have developed a reputation for building the finest sounding, fastest wireless systems available in the industry. Never relying upon digital compression as it results in dull, lifeless sound. Instead, the (optional) Arrow™ wireless system is so fast and dynamic we’re comfortable encouraging the use of wireless on one channel of a pair of RELs while the other channel may be connected conventionally with cable.
