Running In
Care taken over running in will be rewarded by many years of pleasurable use. Both the electronics and the
drive unit will benefit from an initial period of carefully controlled use. Possible damage may be sustained
by running in the unit at too high a volume setting over an extended period. On the other hand, by taking a
little care over this initial period, about 24 hours of actual use, a longer life with an eventual higher potential
performance is assured.
Care and Polishing
The cabinets are best maintained by using a light automotive spray-on wax and a micro fiber cloth. (We use
a spray-on made by a company called Griot’s Garage™. While this may not be available in all markets, you
can use a similar product). Take care not to spray the aluminum badge. Do not place objects, such as drinks
on top of your REL Habitat1. Never use a dry cloth on this finish.
Technical
The Longbow™ transmitter provides true REL Theater Reference™ connectivity, permitting both HIGH LEVEL
and LFE channels to be wirelessly fed to Habitat1. This occurs with virtually zero delay and a complete
absence of compression.
Habitat1 uses a very fast, gentle and transparent filter intended to allow excellent impulse response
and a natural sound. We refer to this circuit as Natural Rolloff™. Most subs use slow, very steep filters that
lend an unnatural, machine-like quality to the sound. The Habitat1 employs a highly refined Class-D amplifier
which combines high performance and high efficiency. The drivers are simple, rugged and relatively light,
and yet offers excellent self-damping so we are better able to reproduce the nuance of music and preserve
the explosiveness of transients. Finally, the cabinets, apart from being physically beautiful, are like finely
tuned instruments that are largely responsible for the sonic virtue with which the Habitat1 is imbued.
