The REL T/9x Special Edition is the pinnacle of the T/x line, a stunning fusion of audiophile performance and bold aesthetic design. It takes the award-winning T/9x platform and elevates it with critical performance upgrades, including a new, lighter, and stiffer carbon fibre-enhanced driver. The result is a subwoofer that is faster, more dynamic, and even more articulate than its celebrated sibling. This enhanced performance is wrapped in one of several vibrant, high-gloss lacquer finishes, each meticulously applied in seven coats. Complemented by exquisite, triple-chromed hardware, the T/9x Special Edition is a true statement piece, delivering reference-level REL sound with an unmatched level of style and exclusivity.

Key Features

  • Upgraded 10” FibreCarbon™ Driver: A new active driver featuring a pure carbon fibre center cap that reduces moving mass by 10 grams, increasing speed, efficiency, and articulation.
  • 300W Class A/B Amplifier: Powered by REL’s legendary 300-watt Class A/B monoblock amplifier, renowned for its reliability, power, and rich, musical character.
  • 10” Passive Radiator: A precisely tuned, down-firing 10-inch passive radiator works in harmony with the active driver to deliver deep, room-filling bass down to 27Hz.
  • Exquisite Special Edition Finishes: Available in several striking, multi-layered lacquer finishes, such as Italian Racing Red, each polished to a mirror-like sheen.
  • Triple-Chromed Hardware: Features a new top badge and solid billet aluminum feet that undergo a meticulous three-day triple-chroming process for a jewel-like finish.
  • Optional Wireless Connectivity: Fully compatible with the optional REL Arrow™ wireless system, delivering REL’s signature sound without the need for cables.

The Heartbeat of Carbon Fibre

The core of the T/9x Special Edition's performance upgrade lies in its redesigned 10-inch active driver. While the standard T/9x is a formidable performer, the SE driver is significantly enhanced with a pure carbon fibre center cap. This single change accomplishes two goals: it dramatically increases the cone's rigidity for better bass articulation, and it reduces moving mass by 10 grams. This reduction in weight makes the driver significantly faster and more responsive, resulting in a 1.2 dB increase in output. The T/9x SE is faster, more dynamic, and hits with greater impact, all while retaining the natural, transparent sound REL is known for.

Amplified Emotion

Driving this new, lighter cone is REL’s tried-and-true 300-watt Class A/B monoblock amplifier. A legend in its own right, this powerhouse amplifier has been the reliable heart of the flagship T-series for years, with huge reserves of current and massive power supplies. It provides the control and muscle needed to deliver deep, concussive bass for home theater, while retaining the speed, warmth, and texture required to blend seamlessly with high-performance stereo speakers. It is the perfect engine for the T/9x SE's high-performance driver.

Masterfully Crafted to Mesmerize

The T/9x Special Edition is a visual work of art, designed to be a statement piece in any room. It is available in a selection of vibrant, motorsport-inspired lacquer finishes, such as Italian Racing Red, which are applied in seven meticulous coats and polished to a deep, lustrous shine. This stunning finish is complemented by exquisite, jewel-like hardware. Both the new top badge and the solid billet aluminum feet undergo a painstaking three-day triple-chroming process, layering copper, nickel, and chrome to achieve a flawless, mirror-like quality that elevates the T/9x SE from a simple subwoofer to a true object of design.

Seamless Integration

Like all RELs, the T/9x Special Edition is designed for perfect integration with your main speakers, not just to add booming bass. It features REL’s legendary High Level Input, allowing you to connect directly to your amplifier's speaker outputs. This ensures the subwoofer receives the exact same sonic signature as your main speakers, resulting in a seamless blend. With fast 8ms input filters and simple, reliable analog controls for gain, crossover, and phase, the T/9x SE becomes a true extension of your speakers, enhancing the entire soundstage with greater depth, width, and realism.
