{"product_id":"rel-s-550-subwoofer-schwarz-hochglanz-stuck","title":"REL S-550 Subwoofer, Gloss Black (Each)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe REL S-550 belongs to REL's S Series, the flagship range for music listeners with high demands on depth, speed and control. It combines an active driver with a passive woofer (active 10\" front + passive 12\" down-firing, CarbonAlloy™) and a linear Class D amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the REL S-550?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the S Series, REL bundles its entire experience from over three decades of subwoofer development: an active driver delivers attack and control, while a large passive driver adds extra depth without the amplifier having to work disproportionately hard for it. The result is a subwoofer that stays controlled even at low frequencies instead of booming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe S-550 delivers rich yet precisely contoured bass that blends seamlessly into music playback – from acoustic double bass through electronic music to orchestral depths. In home cinema use, the same controlled attack delivers impact without droning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the REL S-550 suited for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe S-550 is designed for music and home-cinema listeners who want the optimum in depth and control in a medium to large room and are willing to invest significantly more for it than in the T Series. Honestly: for small rooms or a tight budget, the T Series is the smarter choice – the S-550 only shows its true strengths from a certain room size upward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe REL S-550 is a statement subwoofer for anyone who wants uncompromising, musical deep bass. Not an entry-level unit, but one of the most consistent implementations of REL's two-driver philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: active 10\" front + passive 12\" down-firing, CarbonAlloy™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmplifier: linear Class D amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: from approx. 19 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 37.2 × 44.5 × 50 cm (H×W×D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approx. 31 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInputs: Neutrik Speakon (high-level, 10 m cable), RCA (line-level + LFE), LFE also as XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWireless option: REL Airship Direct (available separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrille: fabric grille as standard, premium wood grille optional\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Gloss Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat room size is the REL S-550 suited for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe S-550 is designed for medium to large living rooms (roughly 25–65 m², depending on the model).
