REL No.35 Reference Subwoofer
Includes 3-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty
Beyond Expectations
Reference Performance, Redefined
No.35 establishes a new standard for what a single 12-inch Reference subwoofer can achieve. Its new 900-watt Class AB/D amplifier combines the immense current reserves of a traditional Class A/B design with the speed and efficiency of a Class D output stage. Paired with an extensively redesigned 12-inch Pure Carbon Fibre driver, the result is effortless, fast, and remarkably controlled bass at levels previously beyond any single 12-inch REL.
Indeed, No.35 plays louder than our previous-generation 15-inch Reference flagship, while delivering the speed, nuance, and refinement expected of REL Reference. The result is not simply greater output. Music gains natural weight and dimension, dynamics feel unrestrained, and the entire system performs with greater ease.
No.35 is Reference without compromise, delivering an extraordinary balance of scale, precision, and authority from a 12-inch architecture.
Reference, Perfectly Proportioned
No.35 delivers the same extraordinary cabinet quality as No.36, expressed in the more compact proportions that have long defined REL’s 12-inch Reference models. Its curvilinear form is unique within the REL range, with sweeping surfaces inspired by classic wooden runabouts and a top that tumbles gracefully into the rear corners. Achieving these continuous curves requires exceptional woodworking, finished in 12 coats of hand-rubbed lacquer.
The details are equally considered. A sculpted string grille follows the cabinet’s curves, carbon fibre provides a visual connection to the engineering within, and triple-plated stainless-steel handles anchor into thick plates of milled aluminium. Inside, elaborate bracing reminiscent of a ship’s structural ribs creates an exceptionally rigid foundation.
No.35 retains the exact dimensions of No.31 while occupying approximately 20 percent less space than No.36. Precision-knurled cylinders beneath the front rails provide exact levelling, particularly important for Reference Line Arrays, where existing No.31 models can be incorporated with No.35. It is full Reference craftsmanship, presence, and substance, distilled into beautifully balanced proportions.
