Serie T/x is instantly seen
as crisper, fresher, a full upgrade . Our goals
were not simply to improve upon its illustrious
predecessor, but to deliver as much as possible
of our latest Serie S on a budget. Faster, more
transparent sounding system performance awaits
you with higher output levels and even greater
impact.
Serie T/9x: Bigger AND
Better - The 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.
Reimagined, Then Reengineered - A completely
redesigned flagship
Many don’t realize the intense linkage between
performance and design here at REL. Performance
is everything to us and so it drives physical
design revisions. Our 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 our designs. By increasing the
cabinet volume, efficiency is improved yielding
higher output for no more amplifier power. Less
back pressure inside the cabinet means we can
tune for a stiffer, better controlled driver
suspension. We retained the best aspects of our
previous design, 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.
Tried and True Amplifiers - The Brains
Behind the Brawn
We have retained our signature Class A/B
amplifiers used in every generation of Serie 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
At REL, we’ve developed a sterling reputation
for building the finest sounding, fastest
wireless systems available in the industry. We
never rely upon digital compression as it
results in dull, lifeless sound. Instead, we
have perfected an (optional) Arrow™ wireless
system 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.
