REL Acoustics, Ltd. of Bridgend, Wales was founded in 1990 by Richard Edmund Lord. Dissatisfied by the commercially available subwoofers of the day, Lord set out to build himself something better. Soon enough audiophiles began searching out these legendary subs that were built like no other.

Today, REL is one of the fastest-growing product ranges in the entire high end with acclaim coming from virtually every audio and home theater magazine. Fundamental reliability remains its core strength, blended with a unique approach to design that results in what many consider to be the most musical and powerful sounding subwoofers available.
