REL HT/1205 MKII

HT/1205 MKII establishes a new performance standard for affordable home theatre subwoofers. Avoiding electronic gimmickry in favor of properly balanced priorities; cabinets that are right-sized, solidly braced and beautifully finished. A sparkling new amp design that effortlessly delivers 500W into an all-new CarbonGlas™ 12” (300mm) driver. The sexy new black lacquer top plate has a subtle REL logo floating on top, while the expensively wrought black line-grained composite for the cabinet looks the business.

HT/1205 MKII plays 50% louder than its predecessor, while also delivering more precision and subtlety. It is capable of output levels more commonly found in models well over $1,000/£1,000. Fantastic for music and available HT-Air rounds out a perfect offering.

Rethink What's Possible

PERFORMANCE HOME THEATER

Serie HT is designed specifically to answer the challenge of creating affordably priced, exceptionally dynamic, pure home theater powered subwoofers. The HT/1205 MKII is the ideal combination of a lightweight, modern 12” CarbonGlas™ (300mm) driver coupled to a powerful 500W Class D amplifier that runs cool, producing extraordinary dynamics. Internally, we developed specially adapted home theater input filters that produce extremely flat bass down in the 20’s.


We set out to build the loudest, relatively compact 12” unit available for pure home theater use, and at truly attractive pricing. You’ll be the judge of how well we accomplished that goal, but critics are already lining up for reviews. We believe the HT/1205 MKII is destined to become a modern classic with svelte cabinet dimensions finished in an attractive, yet purposeful line grained black aluminum-look and topped by a 12mm thick beautifully polished top that serves to damp vibrations on the critical top surface of the cabinet.


For REL owners already enjoying our Reference, Serie S and T/i subwoofers designed for both 2-channel and theater use, the HT/1205 MKII is designed to supplement their system’s .1/LFE output to produce extremely high output for chest rumbling home theater special effects.

Designer Exterior

The beautiful new cabinetry is bespoke; it has new textures, proportions, and finishing touches previously unseen in the category. Lower, sleeker cabinetry borrows proportions drawn from our new Reference models, resulting in a faster, deeper presentation of bass. The top panel is finished in 5 coats of hand-polished piano black lacquer with a discreet REL logo floating within.

Drive Like You Mean It

The HT/1205 MK II’s 12” CarbonGlas™ driver has been strengthened throughout. Lightweight yet stiff materials, larger magnets, and upgraded suspension allow extreme output while remaining fast, controlled, and musical.

Now Hear This!

A brutally powerful 500-watt amplifier built by a tier-one supplier delivers awe-inspiring sound. MOSFET modules rated at 800 watts ensure longevity, power, and superb performance for both theatre and music.

Wired For Sound: HT-Air

HT-Air™ replaces long cables with a fast 5.8GHz wireless signal up to 60 feet with zero digital compression. Using REL’s LSIC technology, it is ideal for .1/LFE signals and delivers clean, powerful wireless performance.
