REL Acoustics HT1003 MKII – Performance Home Theatre

REL’s home theatre-focused HT1003 MKII subwoofer is designed specifically to answer the challenge of an affordably priced, highly dynamic pure home theatre powered subwoofer in a handsome, compact package. The HT/1003 MKII combines a lightweight, modern 10” CarbonGlas™ (250 mm) driver, coupled to a powerful 300W Class D amplifier that runs cool, producing startling dynamics. Internally, REL designed specially adapted home theatre input filters that produce extremely flat bass down in the 20’s.

Purpose Built

The HT/1003 is designed to deliver the best bang (quite literally) for your buck when building a home theatre system, featuring compact cabinet dimensions and 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.

300w Digital Amplifier

To accomplish their goal of exceedingly high output in a such a compact footprint required a special amplifier. REL’s NextGen5 Class D amplifier frees up interior space whilst running cool, this results in more cabinet volume and that translates into ultra-deep bass despite its modest footprint. 300 watts means the driver is never starving for power ensuring high output, delivered effortlessly in a long running, reliable design. Within HT/1003’s input filter, REL designed specific inverse filtering to permit the CarbonGlas driver to extend much deeper than conventional designs.

Optional Wireless Connectivity

By adding the optional HT-Air module you can connect the HT/1003 MKII wirelessly.  Unlike other wireless subs, the HT-Air uses unique zero compression technology. Using a state-of-the-art chipset, the HT-Air wireless transmitter offers flawless signal quality with zero compression, delivering a latency (lag) figure of just 16-20 milliseconds, it’s hugely superior to the more common Bluetooth method of wireless connection. Put simply, the bass keeps up and stays in time with the action.
