HT/1003 MKII
Als ruimte, of liever gezegd het gebrek eraan
een ding is en je toekan met minder power die
een grotere REL kan bieden, is de HT/1003mkII de
aangewezen subwoofer. Eigenlijk doet ‘ie precies
hetzelfde als zijn grotere broer, maar dan net
ietsje minder. De krachtige 10” langeslag woofer
wordt comfortabel aangestuurd door de ingebouwde
300W versterker. Deze woofer is naast home
theater toepassingen geschikt voor gaming
set-ups. Zoals REL het verwoordt: scaled down
design, up-sized performance. Zelfs als je al
een Ti of S model van REL hebt, kan een HT/1003mkII
het .LFE kanaal voor zijn rekening nemen en net
dat stukje extra bieden bij de nieuwste Mission
Impossible.
Buy an HT/1003 MKII if you
either don’t have the space or don’t require the
extra output of our larger models. It’s that
simple. More compact, just as beautiful, it
delivers identical build quality to its siblings.
It’s style makes it an ideal partner in HT/3D
REL theatre setups with Serie T/x. All-new 300W
Class D amplifier offers greater headroom and
powers a new CarbonGlas™ 10” (250mm) driver.
This combination delivers devastating output,
playing TWICE as loud as the original. At this
price, this performance is unheard of. The icing
on the cake is that, like all the new HT’s, it
responds beautifully when playing music, and
HT-Air delivers state of the art (optional)
wireless.
Designer Clothing
The sexy new cabinetry is bespoke, with new
textures, proportions, and finishing touches
previously unseen in the category. Lower,
sleeker cabinetry borrows proportions drawn from
our new Reference models. Through
experimentation over the years, we have found
that this results in a faster, deeper
presentation of bass—all while looking smashing.
The eye is immediately drawn to the top panel,
which is finished in 5 coats of hand-polished
piano black lacquer. A discreet REL logo floats
within the top layer of lacquer, whilst the body
of the cabinet is clad in horizontally streaked,
line-grained composite. The entire affair looks
expensive, bespoke, and tastefully restrained.
Also, it can be combined with either Serie T/x
or Serie S in large, fully-immersive REL HT/3D™
setups.
Drive Like You Mean It
HT/1003 MKII’s driver remains a 10” (250mm)
CarbonGlas™ construct to keep its overall size
reasonable in its role as the powerhouse for
slightly more modest spaces. Every component was
beefed up—improved in ways both large and small
to deliver the greatest performance possible.
Lightweight, stiff, and quiet, the combination
of glass fibre primary cones with true carbon
fibre centre caps results in a cost-effective
yet pistonic cone. Larger, more powerful magnets
produce greater energy. Upgraded suspension
designs with enlarged surround to permit greater
travel means output remains under control all
the way to the limits of amplifier and driver.
The result is prodigious output for this price
point while remaining fast and liquid, as do all
RELs.
Amplified Excellence
Amplifiers do the dirty work and the heavy
lifting in a theatre subwoofer. We turned to a
true Tier One amp supplier to build our latest
design for us; they didn’t disappoint. They
created thicker boards, and upgraded power
supplies—all the stuff that, while not sexy,
results in a brutally powerful 300W amp (did you
know all RELs are specified as RMS Continuous,
just like a big, expensive 300 W monoblock amp?)
with remarkable longevity. It generates truly
awe-inspiring sound. While its theatre
applications get all the headlines, its big
secret is that it sounds sublime in musical
applications. Big and robust-sounding, the HT/1003
MKII is sure to become an instant classic.
PerfectFilters™: Where
Perfection Starts
REL input filters are renowned throughout the
audio world. They bring together ultra-fast
analogue crossovers, customer-designed elevation
filters that extend the flatness of deep bass,
and integrated limiters that allow all the power
to explode outward. This compact series of
analogue circuits is REL’s secret recipe in both
music and film sound. Refined in this second
generation, the secondary filters used now allow
extension to a much higher frequency, allowing
the rarefaction of air in the sound of an
explosion to feel that much more realistic.
Additionally, our latest circuit includes an
all-analogue subsonic filter that begins as low
as 12 Hz to minimize the effects of infra-noise
from soundtracks that extends well below the
resonance point of the driver. The result is
incredible delivered power with the ability to
play to the driver’s limit without distortion.
Wired For Sound: HT-Air
Being wired for sound used to require long runs
of cable strewn across the floor. With our
optional HT-Air™, great sound can be “un-wired”—replaced
by a tiny transmitter and matching receiver that
sends an incredibly fast 5.8Ghz wireless signal
up to 60 feet without digital compression. This
affordable circuit includes the same LSIC chip
that powers our state-of-the-art AirShip II,
without the expensive discrete
analogue-to-digital and digital-to-analog (DAC)
convertors. It is perfect for the .1/LFE signals
using RCA connectors that are HT/1205 MKII’s
primary mission.
