Een waardevolle toevoeging bij film beleving en bij muziekbeleving. Te koop een, in uitstekende staat,verkerende subwoofer rel q 150 e.
Is this one priced to move, or just sitting at market? At €244, it’s essentially at the typical used level for this model, sitting just above the €242 median and right in line with the tight €241–€242 band, so it reads as fair rather than a steal.
That makes it interesting if you want a well-regarded compact sub that’s known for musical, quick bass rather than boom. A clean example can be a very sensible buy for a smaller system, especially if the seller can show honest ownership and the unit includes the essentials. With no obvious price premium here, the real question is condition: verify it powers up quietly, the driver is clean, and the controls are smooth.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
REL Acoustics traces its origins to the inventive mind of Richard Edmund Lord, the man behind the brand's acronym, who founded the company in the United Kingdom around 1990 out of frustration with the subpar subwoofers available at the time. Dissatisfied with conventional low-frequency solutions, Lord crafted his own mammoth custom design, integrated into a bay window, which quickly earned acclaim from audiophiles as the finest they had encountered. This grassroots beginning in a tiny workshop marked the start of REL's relentless pursuit of audio perfection, evolving through innovations like the revolutionary High-Level Input that connects directly to a main amplifier's speaker outputs for seamless integration.
The brand specializes exclusively in powered subwoofers, eschewing amplifiers, speakers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables to focus intently on sub-bass systems. Early models like the Strata 2, Stadium, and Britannia range established REL's signature forward-firing designs and simplified crossovers, while later series such as T/x and the reimagined Serie S—launched in 2025 with models like the 212 Black Label and S/850—refine musicality, style, and power. Acquired in 2005 by John Hunter and Donald Brody, REL modernized its aesthetics and engineering without diluting its core philosophy.
REL commands a prestigious niche in the high-end hi-fi market as the preeminent authority on subwoofers, revered by discerning audiophiles for transforming even elite $15,000-to-$20,000 speaker systems into reference-caliber performers. Its boutique status stems from unwavering innovation and musical fidelity, positioning it as an essential upgrade for serious setups rather than a mass-market or mid-tier option.
