Know before you buy
REL subwoofers use a unique high-level connection method that draws the signal directly from your amplifier's speaker outputs. This cable is configured with the necessary Neutrik Speakon connector to interface with the subwoofer while allowing you to connect to your amplifier's binding posts, ensuring the sub receives the exact same signal as your main speakers.
You should match the termination type to your existing main speaker cables for consistency and convenience. If your amplifier binding posts are already occupied by spade-terminated speaker cables, choosing spades for this cable allows you to stack them securely; otherwise, banana plugs are often easier to install and remove.
Silver and Rhodium are premium plating materials chosen for their excellent conductivity and resistance to corrosion. These materials ensure a clean, stable electrical connection that maintains signal integrity over time, which is critical for the precise performance of your subwoofer.
Yes, this is a high-performance, custom-built upgrade to the standard cable included with REL subwoofers. It uses high-quality Cardas Crosslink cable and premium connectors to provide a more robust signal path and a more secure physical connection than the stock cable.
No, this cable is specifically engineered for the high-level input architecture of REL subwoofers. It is not intended for use with subwoofers that rely on standard RCA line-level inputs.
