Commander™ is designed to deliver the highest
value, best sounding, yet affordable LFE
subwoofer cable to-date. It applies lessons
learned from its more expensive stablemate
Commodore™, offering commanding value with the
assembly quality and sonic performance REL are
known for. Ideal for REL’s Serie T/x, HT/1003MKII,
HT/1205MKII, and Classic 98. |

How LFE Makes the Difference
Cables are the neural pathways that connect our
systems. Like nerve bundles, they carry the
emotion that makes home theatre so powerful.
Subwoofer cables are essential, as they deliver
the full impact of the low-frequency effects
that define the movies and shows we love. That’s
why Dolby requires every theatre to include a
dedicated subwoofer (.1/LFE) channel. Commander
delivers a balance of virtues; warm, full-bodied
bass that effortlessly supports dynamic
soundtracks and immersive effects. REL
understands how deep bass interacts with sonic
events across the frequency spectrum proven out
through more than 35 years of designing
world-class subwoofers. That knowledge informs
every aspect of our cable design. Commander is
the result—an affordable, high performance LFE
cable that delivers the experience REL customers
expect.
Color Matched for Any Room
REL customers expect more. Performance? Surely,
but also thoughtful design and materials that go
above and beyond the norm. That’s why we offer
Commander in both White and Black jackets. White
blends cleanly into baseboards and lighter
floors, while Black disappears against dark
hardwoods or carpet. Simple as Black and White.
We also carried over our reverse-threaded RCA
connectors from the Commodore cable. Typical RCA
connectors loosen the barrels when you try to
wiggle them free to make a change in your system;
ours tighten the barrels as you remove the
connector. A small but smart detail, with arrow
indicators to show signal flow.
Fundamentals Executed the REL Way
We have over 40 years of experience on our
internal cable design team and we know what
works and what to avoid. While some cables rely
on gimmicky features, Commander skips the fluff
that drive up cost and focuses on the
fundamentals. The dedicated ground features two
levels of noise-attenuation and a twisted-pair
hot conductor made of 60 strands of 99.99% pure
Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC). The result is a cable
that’s both quiet and dynamic. Built to last for
years, Commander’s rugged PVC jacket stays clean
with a simple wipe of a damp cloth.
A Better Ownership Experience
We’ve already mentioned the reverse-threaded
barrels, but it’s worth repeating. REL pays
attention to the little things that affect
everyday use. Left-handed threads are used to
attach the white or black outer barrels on our
RCAs. We spend a lot of time in customer homes
and helping stores and nothing is as frustrating
as having the connector barrel become
disconnected when trying to remove a long-seated
connector. So, our designers designed these
reverse-twist threads so that when you twist the
connector to remove it from the AVR, the barrel
becomes tighter. Simple? Maybe, but no one else
has thought of this.
