Nice REL 212 Black Label Subwoofer Upgrade for our Home System.
Hi Everyone,
Happy New Year, all the best for 2026 👍
Just a quick one to share a nice upgrade that we did on our home system over Christmas, it was a case of out with our old 212’s which were replaced with these newly released 212 Black label Subwoofers.
No I must admit the upgrade was driven mainly by the new gorgeous Walnut grilles to match our PMC BB5 Speakers but the upgrade in performance REL has found is quite astonishing, I was more than happy with the previous version but these really do go deeper and feel faster and punchier with both music and cinema, really adds a new level of engagement for 2 channel listening.
Also Have to say the Steven Wilson SDE Atmos mix of Welcome To The Pleasuredome, obviously the greatest album Of the 80’s, really is superb, possibly the ultimate version of the album, we run 2 REL Carbon Specials on the rear channels also so to say it filled the room is an understatement, love it, a special mention should also go to this 30 mix of Pleasuredome, respectfully done, just wish it was longer, so good👌
We have the full range of the new REL Serie S subwoofers now on demo as well as most of the T range so if you'd like to come in for a demo anytime please feel free, as I have said many times before that a REL sub is as important in a 2 channel system as an amplifier so if you don't run a sub at the moment it really is worth exploring as it is the best pound for pound upgrade you can do to a HiFi system in my opinion.
HFL on REL Over the years at HFL we have tried numerous subwoofers but it wasn’t until we discovered REL that we found what we were really l
All the best,
Paul.
