REL BLUETM is constructed of slow-drawn, high purity copper, drawn in a nitrogen bath to minimize impurities on the surface of the wire.
Each individual conductor is coated in a Teflon film immediately upon leaving the extrusion die to ensure that impurities cannot impinge on the cable while awaiting further processing. This technique produces a sound that is exceptionally pure and natural which we term Natural DrawnTM wire.
BLUE is hand constructed at our California facility using cable produced exclusively to RELs specification by a North American OEM wire and cable house. Construction is quite labour intensive and can require up to one hour per cable.
Rel use pure silver solder for all connections which ensures not just high quality sound, but also as the cable ages and oxidation sets in sonic degradation should be nil due to the conductive properties of pure silver.
REL employ Swiss-made Neutrik SpeakOn connectors at the input to the REL sub bass system. In over 100,000 RELs in use the world over, this connector has proven itself reliable, neutral and a mechanically ideal connector for RELs renowned High Level Input circuitry. BLUETM also features high quality spade lugs coated in gold to minimize oxidation. Should your amplifier require a bare wire connection, this is easily accommodated by manually re-terminating the individual red, black and yellow leads.
REL Acoustics BasslineTM BLUETM will generate a noticeable improvement in every REL sub bass system. BLUETM cable is the result of carefully balancing inductance, capacitance and resistance in such a way that greater clarity, speed and dynamics are ideally preserved. Some aftermarket cables claim to improve performance, but in our experience, the result is often a narrowly defined improvement with performance losses elsewhere. Because REL designs and develops our own proprietary input, filter and protection circuits, we have been able to balance ALL the parameters of BLUETM to improve the total REL sonic package.
The standard high-level hookup procedure is: attach the red wire to the amplifiers right positive speaker output terminal; attach the yellow wire to the amplifiers left positive speaker output terminal; attach the black wire to whichever of the amplifiers ground output terminals is convenient; plug the Speakon connector into the Sub-Bass systems high-level input.
