Connection: DVD player/recorder · Decoderstation

Connection to a DVD player/recorder 

As well as being connected directly to your PC, 
the  Concept  E  100/200/300/400  can  also  be 
connected straight to a DVD player/recorder. It 
allows  you  to  create  a  complete  home  cinema 
sound system with just two audio appliances! 
To control the set directly via a DVD player, the 
player/recorder must have an integrated Dolby 
Digital/DTS decoder. This type of equipment can 
often  be  recognised  by  the  fact  that  the  DVD 
player has an analogue 5.1 cinch output at the 

back (6 cinch jacks for front R/L, rear R/L, cen

-

tre and subwoofer). The DVD player/recorder is 
connected directly to the subwoofer with three 
stereo cinch cables, from the 5.1 cinch outputs 
of the DVD player to the 5.1 cinch inputs of the 
subwoofer. 

Connecting the speakers to a Decoderstation 

The  speakers  are  connected  to  a  Decodersta-
tion in the same way as they are connected to 
a DVD player. Please refer to the Decoderstation 
manual.

Connecting the Concept E to a 

DVD player/recorder without 

5.1 analogue outputs

Even if your DVD player/recorder 

does not have a decoder or six 

analogue cinch outputs, you 

can still use the Concept E 

successfully. 

Connect the stereo output of 

your appliance using a stereo 

cinch cable with the front input 

“In R/L” on the subwoofer. 

The front loudspeakers are 

responsible for stereo signal re-

production. The centre generates 

an addition of the right and left 

channel of the stereo signal. The 

rear loudspeaker is responsible 

for the subtraction of the right 

and left stereo signal. This 

means that if the right and left 

signal are identical, the rear 

loudspeaker will reproduce little 

to no signal at all. The subwoofer 

transmits the bass signals from 

the left and right channel. This 

admittedly does not sound as 

perfect as Dolby Digital, but does 

sound better than pure stereo 

reproduction. You will also be 

able to use your speakers using 

a Teufel decoder later, allowing 

you to experience the pleasure of 

Dolby Digital and DTS.

DVD player settings are descri-

bed in detail on page 15.
