Description

HT/1205 home theater subwoofer delivers a brand new 500W Class D power amplifier design, coupled to a 12” (300mm) long travel driver to deliver extremely high output in an attractive design. HT is a powerhouse for dedicated high powered home theater applications, that will also transform the gaming experience and partners nicely with active wireless speakers.

PERFORMANCE HOME THEATRE

Serie HT is designed specifically to answer the challenge of creating affordably prices, exceptionally dynamic, pure home theatre powered subwoofers. The HT/1205 is the ideal combination of a lightweight, modern 12" CarbonGlas™ (300mm) driver coupled to a powerful 500W Class D amplifier that runs cool, producing extraordinary dynamics. Internally, REL developed specially adapted home theatre input filters that produce extremely flat bass down in the 20's.

REL set out to build the loudest, relatively compact 12" unit available for pure home theatre use, and at truly attractive pricing. You'll be the judge of how well they accomplished that goal, but critics are already lining up for reviews. REL believe the HT/1205 is destined to become a modern classic with svelte cabinet dimensions finished in an attractive, yet purposeful, line grained black aluminium-look and topped by a 12mm thick beautifully polished top that serves to damp vibrations on the critical top surface of the cabinet.

For REL owners already enjoying their Reference, Serie S and T/I subwoofers designed for both 2-channel and theatre use, the HT/1205 is designed to supplement their systems's .1/LFE output to produce extremely high output for chest rumbling home theatre special effects.



Purpose Built

BRING ON THE SPECIAL EFFECTS


HT/1205 delivers a tough, simple, purpose-built appearance designed to communicate its sole mission; devastatingly high output home theater. The cabinet’s width is minimized reducing visual mass, whilst depth is maximized to produce the deepest bass. We selected tough, high-grade, horizontally oriented line-grained composite to wrap the entire cabinet, which offers easily handled, easy cleaning. This more basic design vocabulary differs from the more refined finishes found in our other lines, however the top surface that catches one’s eye is beautifully finished in 5 coats of hand rubbed lacquer, creating the visual appeal we’ve come to be known for.


Size Matters

TWELVE-INCH CARBONGLAS™ DRIVER

REL’s driver prowess is on full display with the HT/1205, a modern 12” CarbonGlas™ (300mm) driver that is both lightweight and extremely stiff. While many competitors drone along with relatively slow, heavy cones HT/1205’s uses tough, stiff carbon fibre over 60% of the driven surface, backed by lightweight glasfibre. Naturally, REL use true high quality natural butyl surrounds as they remain soft and pliable for decades—something REL owners have come to expect. HT/1205’s new 12” CarbonGlas driver sets a new standard for affordable, high performance theater-specific drivers.


500W Amplifier

WARN THE NEIGHBOURS, IT'S MOVIE NIGHT

500 Watts: To accomplish the single-minded goal of exceedingly high output for large-scale theater applications requires a special amplifier. The NextGen5 Class D amplifier frees up interior space whilst running cool; this results in more cabinet volume and that translates into louder and deeper bass. 500 watts means the driver never is allowed to starve for power ensuring a long running, reliable design. Within HT-1205’s input filter, REL designed in specific inverse filtering to permit our CarbonGlas driver to extend much deeper than traditional designs.
