REL Acoustics T/7X BLACK Serie T7/x 8-Inch Powered Subwoofer in Piano Black Lacquer (Each)
The REL Acoustics T/7X BLACK Serie T/x powered subwoofer combines a built-in 200-watt RMS Class A/B amplifier with an 8 in front-firing active driver, a 10 in down-firing passive radiator and in-room low-frequency extension of 30 Hz at -6 dB. High-level Neutrik Speakon, low-level RCA and dedicated LFE RCA inputs serve two-channel music and home theater systems, with independent LFE level control for movie bass. Finished in Piano Black Lacquer, it is intended for small to medium rooms where one system handles both albums and films. Optional Arrow wireless equipment is sold separately.
Key Features
Rounded Cabinet in Piano Black Lacquer
Rounded cabinet contours accommodate increased internal volume while reducing apparent visual bulk, keeping the design focused on living-room suitability. The five-coat Piano Black Lacquer finish gives this configuration its distinctive appearance. Sanding and hand polishing are part of the cabinet finishing process, bringing attention to the enclosure as well as the sound.
8 in Active Driver and 10 in Passive Radiator
The smaller front-firing active cone emphasizes quick musical response, while the larger down-firing passive radiator contributes low-frequency reach and movie impact. Both use long-throw FibreAlloy cones, inverted alloy centre caps and steel chassis. Revised suspension is designed to keep the moving assembly aligned through greater excursion, supporting the balance between music and film playback.
Built-In 200-Watt RMS Class A/B Amplification
With amplification inside the cabinet, there is no need to add a separate subwoofer power amplifier. The Class A/B design supplies power and current for control of the driver system, while revised limiting addresses transient headroom rather than increasing the continuous power rating. Fully Electronic Set Safe, D.C. fault and output-short protection are also provided.
High-Level Music Integration and Independent LFE
The high-level Neutrik Speakon connection takes its signal from the main amplifier's speaker terminals to help the subwoofer blend with the main speakers. A low-level RCA input provides another wired signal path. For films, the dedicated .1/LFE RCA input has its own volume control and filter, allowing movie bass adjustment without repeatedly resetting the music balance. A Neutrik Speakon cable is included for high-level connection.
Optional Arrow Uncompressed Wireless
Arrow compatibility offers an alternative when a long audio-signal cable would complicate placement. The Arrow wireless system is sold separately, not built in or included, and setup uses physical connections and switch operation rather than an app. Wireless replaces the signal cable, not the mains connection: the subwoofer still requires AC power.
Room Guidance for Music and Movies
Approximately 100-300 square feet is the recommended room range, reflecting a design aimed at balanced everyday listening rather than maximum output. Choose this single-subwoofer configuration for a shared music and movie system; stereo subwoofer use calls for two matching models.

The manufacturer recommends rooms of approximately 100-300 square feet. The design is intended for small to medium rooms and systems used for both music and home theater.
-
Connection options include a high-level Neutrik Speakon input, one low-level RCA input and one dedicated LFE RCA input. The high-level connection takes its signal from the main amplifier's speaker terminals to help integrate bass with the main speakers. The dedicated LFE input has a separate level control, allowing movie bass to be adjusted independently of the music connection.
