Overview
The REL Acoustics Arrow is a plug and play wireless system designed specifically for the T/x series subwoofers. It replaces the physical signal cable between your electronics and the subwoofer with a low latency wireless link, so you can place a T/x sub where it performs best rather than where a cable can reach. The transmitter draws the signal directly, preserving the tight timing and musical blend that REL is known for, while the receiver docks neatly into the compatible T/x subwoofer.
Engineering wise, Arrow is tuned for the bandwidth and demands of REL's music focused mid range. It maintains the character and timing of the source, which matters because REL designs its subwoofers to follow the main system for music first, not merely to reproduce low frequency effects. For rooms where running a Speakon or RCA cable across the floor is impractical, Arrow keeps the installation clean without compromising the essential REL sound.
This system is ideal for T/x owners who want a tidy, flexible setup, apartment dwellers who cannot run cabling under carpet, and anyone integrating a subwoofer into a living space where aesthetics matter as much as performance.

- Low latency link preserves REL's signature timing and musical blend
- Plug and play installation with minimal setup required
- Receiver integrates directly with compatible T/x series subwoofers

How the Arrow Compares
REL Arrow vs REL AirShip II
The AirShip II sits higher in REL's wireless range and is engineered for the higher performance S line and reference subwoofers, offering greater bandwidth and headroom for those larger designs. Arrow is purpose built for the T/x series, keeping the wireless link matched to that music focused mid range. Choose Arrow for a T/x sub and step up to AirShip II when pairing with an S line or Black Label subwoofer. See the REL AirShip II.
REL Arrow vs REL HT-Air MKII
The HT-Air MKII is optimized for home theater subwoofers where the priority is a clean LFE feed to an HT line sub. Arrow is tuned instead for the T/x series and its music first character, preserving timing and blend for two channel and multichannel music. Match the wireless system to the subwoofer family for the cleanest result. See the REL HT-Air MKII.
Works With These REL Subwoofers
The Arrow is designed to send a clean wireless signal to REL subwoofers, letting you place them anywhere without a cable run. These T/x and neighboring models pair naturally with it.
- REL T/5x This compact 8 inch T/x subwoofer is an ideal candidate for Arrow, allowing discreet placement in smaller rooms without any visible cabling.
- REL T/7x The T/7x gains real flexibility with Arrow, letting you position it in the optimal corner or wall location while the transmitter stays at your electronics.
- REL T/9x As the flagship of the T/x line, the T/9x benefits from Arrow when a floor cable run is impractical, keeping the installation tidy and the timing intact.
- REL T/9x SE The Special Edition T/9x pairs cleanly with Arrow for owners who want reference level music integration without a physical signal cable across the room.
