Description
Carbon Special Black Label
The Carbon Special Black Label subwoofer elevates the medium chassis to its highest form.
At its heart lies a 12″ all-carbon fibre driver, closely related to the design used in our No.31 Reference, powered by a 900-watt amplifier and housed in an expanded cabinet that frees the carbon driver to deliver greater scale and authority.
The result is bass that combines breathtaking power, speed, and tonal nuance.
Form + Function
Each Carbon Special Black Label includes a premium wood grille that enhances both beauty and airflow, underscoring the model’s dual commitment to form and function.
its own, as a stereo pair, or in towering Line Arrays, it delivers Reference-inspired authority reserved for those who demand the very best of Serie S. Black Label models represent the most advanced expressions of Serie S, built with tighter tolerances, upgraded components, and unique finishes.
Design
Carbon Special Black Label pulls together the finest elements of Serie S design. Its cabinet proportions, inspired from our Reference line, achieve a natural sense of scale.
Subtle black crown inlays along the sidewalls and curved stainless-steel handles recessed into elliptical returns underscore its unique position within the range.
Beneath each rail, knurled billet cylinders permit precise levelling, while thick internal aluminium slabs anchor the handles for safe stacking in Line Arrays. Each unit also includes a premium wood grille that adds warmth while enhancing airflow for greater dynamics. A design where beauty and performance converge.
Driver
For Carbon Special Black Label, REL designed a 12-inch all-carbon fibre unit capable of handling three times the peak power of its predecessor.
A newly engineered suspension allows the cone to travel over 60 mm front to back, delivering extraordinary dynamics with complete control. The result is bass that is effortless, powerful, and fluid, extending lower with greater authority.
Whether reproducing the subtle textures of music at concert levels or the impact of modern theater soundtracks, this latest generation driver transforms performance across the entire medium-chassis class.
