• Durable Driver Protection: Provides a robust barrier that protects the advanced 12-inch all-carbon fibre driver from dust, damage, or accidental contact.
• Sleek, Understated Look: Offers a minimalist, traditional hi-fi appearance that allows the subwoofer to blend seamlessly and discreetly into any room.
• Precision Factory Fit: Custom-built for the Carbon Special Black Label subwoofer to ensure a perfect, secure, and rattle-free fit.

An Elegant, Understated Alternative

The Carbon Special Black Label is a statement piece, and it comes standard with a beautiful, architectural wood grille. However, for some systems and rooms, a more classic and discreet look is preferred. This premium black cloth grille is the official REL solution, providing an elegant, understated appearance that matches traditional high-end speakers and allows the subwoofer to blend in, rather than stand out.

You get the same world-class performance, just with a different visual an.

This grille provides a critical layer of protection against dust, pets, or accidental pokes and prods, safeguarding your investment without interfering with its sound. It is precision-engineered for a secure, factory-perfect fit, guaranteeing it will not rattle or resonate, even during the most demanding passages.
