Concept E
Connection: Stereo sources
Connection to stereo sources
Stereo sound card, notebook, MP3 player, satellite
receiver, TV set, games console, CD player, DJ mixer,
Discman, Walkman, etc …
You can see just how versatile the Concept E series
speakers are. The speaker system can be operated
successfully with any of the above appliances. And
not just in stereo, but also with virtual surround
sound, using the integrated “upmix” function that
involves all six of the Concept E speakers. This admit-
tedly does not sound as perfect as Dolby Digital, but
does sound better than pure stereo reproduction.
Here’s how it works:
Connect the stereo output of your appliance to
the front left/right inputs on the rear connec-
tor panel of the subwoofer. It is possible to use a
3.5mm mini-jack to stereo cinch adapter. All five
satellite boxes are connected to the subwoofer
via the speaker cable.
The amplifier now produces a mixed signal for
all speakers. The front loudspeakers are respon-
sible for stereo signal reproduction. The centre
generates an addition of the right and left chan-
nel 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.
Please note
There should be no more plugs
in the other sockets on the
subwoofer (in centre, subwoofer,
rear R/L)!

For 5.1 reproduction you usually
need an external sound card
with six analogue outputs. Dif-
ferent companies offer solutions
for connection to the PCMCIA
port or via USB or FireWire. If
your notebook already has three
analogue mini-jack outputs,
please proceed as described in
the section »Connecting to a 5.1
sound card«.
