  • Page 9 This new Predator is imbued with elegant proportions and beautiful finish treatments, the better to integrate into REL 3D and HT/3D systems. These call for powerful HT .1/LFE along with High Level Inputs available in our traditional model RELs that permit continuous full range bass; this is the missing link in home theatre.
  • Page 10 4 Crossover: Used to adjust crossover frequency. Variable between 30-200Hz. 5 Level: Volume control for Input. 6 XLR Output: Used to connect or “daisy chain” to another REL in tandem. 7 Balanced XLR Input: Used to connect balanced low-level signals to the Predator from the output of a preamplifier, integrated amplifier, or receiver.
  • Page 12 There is a single RCA jack labeled .1/LFE for LFE connection to a processor. Plug one end of the RCA to RCA cable into the .1/LFE jack of the REL and the other end into the SUB OUT Jack of your processor.
  • Page 13 Phase Switch The phase control on a REL has two positions, 0 and 180. One of these positions will set the REL in phase with the speakers, and one will set it out of phase. The labels 0 and 180 are just labels and tell us nothing about the rest of the system, only if the REL is working with the speakers or not.
  • Page 14 REL Set-Up Made Simple With the REL Predator, there are two basic ways to connect and setup. The first is a single channel input from the sub out of a theater or power speaker system. In this case a single RCA cable is needed. The second is a stereo input from a stereo preamp or powered speaker system.
  • Page 15 1 Theater Connection (Sub Out Connecton) • Connect RCA or XLR cable from Sub Out of theater processor to LFE input of Predator. • Adjust CROSSOVER control to 30Hz (minimum). • Adjust LEVEL control to 1/4 of the rotation up from minimum setting. •...
  • Page 16 • DO NOT TURN CROSSOVER UP PAST 1/2 the rotation. Doing so is unnecessary and may result in damage to the driver. • Place carefully: While your REL has been designed to be extremely easy to position and achieve excellent results, careful placement along the same wall as the screen will yield improvements.
  • Page 17 To determine the crossover point, take the volume of the REL (using the Level control) all the way down, and put the crossover to 1/4 of the rotation. At this point, bring the REL’s volume back up slowly to the point where you have achieved a subtle balance, i.e.
  • Page 18 Stacking The Predator was designed to stack cabinets on top of each other to create a line array. Each foot has a pad on the bottom to protect the vinyl on the top. Please remove the plastic covering on the pad before stacking and take care to place the second sub on top of the first carefully to not scratch polished top plate.
  • Page 19 To operate multiple stacked Predators in parallel, REL has provided duplicate RCA and XLR connectors to go OUT of the bottom sub to the input of the top. This is provided for convenience to simply “daisy chain” from one sub to the next with RCA or XLR cables rather than employing multiple “Y”...
  • Page 20 This belief allows Predator to achieve the highest possible level of fidelity. Overload Protection All REL Sub-Bass Systems are designed as true sub bass speakers. They are designed to reproduce those exceptionally deep notes that are felt as well as heard. This it will attempt to do at whatever volume level you set.
  • Page 21 Power Saving Efficiency All REL sub bass system designs utilize a true Power On-Off switch that affords the owner the ability to turn off their unit completely, without having to unplug the A/C mains cord. When a REL sub bass system is switched off using the Power On-Off switch on the rear panel it draws ZERO power.
