New Planar Subwoofers Available May 20th, 2026

REL Acoustics Ltd.

Planar subwoofers redefine how bass lives within a room, bringing flexibility and performance into perfect balance. Designed for modern spaces, it adapts effortlessly from wall-mounted to mobile, delivering the scale, projection, and room-filling energy expected from REL.
Art of Bass Without Boundaries.

Modern Living

Fits The Way You Live
Planar sits close to the wall, keeps the space clean, and fits naturally into how you already live. Whether your room is open, compact, or doing multiple things at once, it works without getting in the way.

Brings Hidden Systems to Life
In-wall and in-ceiling speakers are designed to disappear, but something is often missing. Planar adds the depth and energy that brings them fully to life.

Immersive Ambiance
Envelops the room, where bass becomes part of the atmosphere, not just the sound.

Form. Function. Freedom.

The Wall, Perfected

The Wall, Perfected

Mounting Planar on a wall doesn’t just save space, it enhances bass performance. By aligning with the room’s surfaces, the subwoofer delivers deeper even sound without drawing attention to itself.

Wireless. Built In

Wireless. Built In

Planar is the first REL subwoofer with wireless built in. So you can position it for performance without compromising the space. Clean, simple, and exactly how it should be.

Seen or Unseen

Seen or Unseen

Planar adapts to how you want it to live in the room. Mounted on the wall, placed on a cart, or integrated into the space, it can either disappear or become part of the interior design. However you choose to use it, performance is never compromised.

Effortless Placement

Effortless Placement

The Planar Cart was designed as an extension of the subwoofer itself. Its proportions, spacing, and stance were carefully considered to preserve both performance and visual balance when Planar is off the wall. It allows the subwoofer to move freely within a space while still feeling intentional and complete.

Where it Lives. How it Looks. Your Choice.

REL Acoustics Ltd.

Designed to adapt, giving you control over placement, appearance, and presence. Planar integrates naturally into a wide range of interiors, whether you want it to disappear into the room or stand as a more intentional design element. However it’s used, performance is never compromised.

Built for Music. Ready for Home Theater.

Planar works seamlessly across both two-channel music and home theater, extending the lowest frequencies without disturbing balance, timing, or detail. In stereo, it restores the foundation adding weight, scale, and connection without drawing attention to itself. In home theater, it redefines placement. Positioned along rear walls, behind seating, or alongside center channels, Planar distributes bass evenly throughout the room. This reflects REL’s 3D approach using multiple subwoofers to create a more balanced, immersive field of sound. The result isn’t just impact from one direction, but a room fully energized. You don’t hear a subwoofer. You feel a system that works as one.

Same Performance.
Different Scale.
