Product Description

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ REL Acoustics Classic ’98 Subwoofer and sound of a stand-alone vintage system subwoofer to give you the best of both worlds. Its tall design, beveled edges and walnut finish take you back to an era of great stereo sound and will perfectly complement not only vintage speakers.

But also modern ones that draw their design inspiration from the past. And​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ even though each of these components is very efficient one of their own. The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ entire set was intentionally geared towards sound that is more in line with the old-school ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌style.

REL Acoustics Classic ’98 Subwoofer

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ REL Acoustics Classic ’98 with its 10 inch, pulp-on paper bass cone. Produces the kind of deep, rich bass that you could easily imagine from a classic REL subwoofer, and nothing less. What has changed is the Class-D, 300 watt amplifier.

Outstanding Sound Quaiilty

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ core liner of a driver consists of high quality air-dried paper, which works to make the driver ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌stiffer.. This has given Classic 98 the edge over a number of REL’s products from the past. A natural butyl surround offers a soft, period-appropriate dynamics that are very long-lasting.

Authentic Walnut Veneer

The REL Acoustics Classic ’98 takes inspiration from the essence of our famous 10” down- firing speakers from the late 90s. The deep, authentic walnut veneer gives the feeling of warmth and genuineness, just like the stereo gear from the mid-century.

300 Watt Class D Amplification

Back​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ in the 90s, it was a real challenge to produce a 300W amp at an affordable price. Meanwhile, Rel has built a state-of-the-art amp today – one that is a high-current, ultra-fast Class D amp.

This kind of an energy source is really good not only in terms of dynamics.

Features and Benifits

  • Classic Design: The retro-styled design is so versatile that it will fit perfectly in any setting.
  • Durable Build: A sturdy and robust design ensures a longer lifespan.
  • Vibration Control: The speaker box is so well-made that the sound stays crystal clear even when the volume is turned up to the maximum.
  • Flexible Connectivity: The speaker has various connection options and can even be used as a home theater system.
  • Superior Clarity: It produces the lowest level of harmonic distortion, and that can be heard in the tiniest bass ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌parts.

‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​Summary of the REL Acoustics Classic ’98 Subwoofer

The REL Acoustics Classic ’98 Subwoof takes the lead as an innovative product through the combination of first-class connectivity features and REL’s world-class filter technology.

Whether it be a stereo system or a multi-channel ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌one. Even full-range loudspeakers can often not extend to the lowest bass frequencies. Which reduces the impact and involvement for the listener in both music and movie playback.

REL Acoustics Classic ’98 Subwoofeis a telling example of how REL is willing to incorporate the old with the new. Can be used with the optional  AirShip II and the HT-Air ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌MKII
