The REL Classic 99 builds upon the foundation set by its predecessor, the Classic 98, by amplifying every key attribute. With 450 watts powering a robust 12-inch paper-on-paper driver, this model delivers more power, deeper bass, and an enriched sound experience. The design not only captivates the eye but also enhances the listening experience with added layers of subtle textural detail, ensuring a consistently impressive performance. A Modern Take on Mid-Century Design Embracing the timeless appeal of Mid-Century Modern design, the Classic 99 elevates the Classic Line to new heights with its richer, bolder, and more powerful sound. It offers greater nuance, air, and resolution, making it ideal for larger rooms and more sophisticated sound systems. The high-grade dark walnut veneer adds a touch of luxury, allowing the Classic 99 to seamlessly blend into various interiors while delivering a broad, deep bass that enhances any listening environment. Familiar Aesthetics, Superior Sound The Classic 99 is designed with meticulous attention to detail, adopting the familiar aesthetic of its predecessor, the Classic 98. The solid 32 mm thick cabinet walls, finished in warm walnut veneer, and finely crafted aluminium accents exude quality. The down-firing 12-inch driver is powerful yet unobtrusive, and the period-correct amplifier panel with white gold-finished controls adds to its refined appearance. This level of craftsmanship ensures the Classic 99 is not only a superior audio device but also a cherished piece that could become a family heirloom. A Big Step Forward At the heart of the Classic 99 is a bespoke 12-inch long-stroke driver, engineered for precision and silence. This driver, combined with a 450-watt Class D amplifier and the all-analogue PerfectFilter™ front end, delivers deep, controlled bass with rich detail and minimal distortion. The Classic 99 offers a sound reminiscent of vintage audio but with modern reliability and performance. Compared to the Classic 98, the Classic 99 is 50% larger, offering significant upgrades in power, volume, and depth, making it a truly special addition to the Classic Line.
