Concept E 400 Digital

Make sure our product sounds good in your home with Teufel’s 8-week trial.
If you change your mind you can exchange it or get a full refund, hassle free.

The Concept E 400 Digital is nothing less than the mightiest multimedia complete set we know of: and that with all the typical benefits of the „All in One“ package. Everything’s there, everything fits: speakers, amplifier, controller, decoder, cables…because everything comes together at Teufel.

Fit for everything
This set gives you a fantastic sound from many different sources. Whether Playstation, Xbox, Wii, TV, Computer, MP3 player, DJ Mixer, CD Player, DVD player, Satellite receiver, it doesn’t matter – you can connect to all of it. And it’ll all sound good…

External connector for all devices
The Decoderstation 5 with its four digital inputs, three stereo analogue inputs plus a 5.1 input for the soundcard works as a central connector of the set. Use it directly on the device (there’s a 32 character display!) or via the remote control.

Dolby Digital/dts-technology
The integrated decoder allows an original 5.1 playback and values thanks to the Dolby Prologic stereo signals. You’ll enjoy an amazing surround sound that the five satellites and subwoofer ensure is a harmonious whole.

Exceptional sound

The five compact satellites and imposing subwoofer in the Concept E 400 are singularly responsible for the fantastic sound of this set. The satellites are delivered with table feet, so you’re able to stand them alone in the room or place them on the walls as you wish.

500 Watt maximal performance
The subwoofer-integrated 5.1 amplifier distributes this gigantic performance over two different fields at the same time. The first field is that 300 mm woofer in the slim bass reflex housing which delivers a full bodied, hefty bass up to 32 Hz. The second field are the fantastic five two-way satellites that, from only a 9 x 12,5 cm large housing with 80 mm midrange drivers and a 19 mm tweeter, produce extremely accurate, multifaceted and dynamic sound. For rooms of up to 30 m² the satellites and woofer handle the room admirably…with the addition of the included cable set AC 3015 WS you’re guaranteed powerful and strong performance through the room.

Crowning Glory
The Concept E 400 Digital takes the top position for the Teufel multimedia complete solution for all walks of life. For the home cinema, overkill at the office or as a universal multimedia station – you’ll have the set to impress both yourself and others with – the one that’ll give you real fun to play.

Setup
Connect the five satellites with speaker cables to the subwoofer. The subwoofer is connected with six included RCA-cables to the "Front - Left/Right", "Rear - Left/Right", "Center" and "Sub" inputs of the subwoofer - to the Decoderstation 5 and you're ready.

Eight inputs
Decoderstation 5 has four digital and four analogue inputs enabling the optimal connection of a multitude of devices: PC, Mac, notebook, DVD recorder/player, game consoles such as Xbox , PlayStation or Wii, MP3 player, iPod, DVB-T and satellite receivers, video recorder, TV, CD player, MiniDisk player, DJ mixer, media drive and many, many more.

Connection to the computer
Surround sound cards normally have several minijack (3.5mm) outputs. By using three Y-adapters, such as the AC 5015 AP, these can be directly connected to the Decoderstation 5.

You can also connect the digital output of your soundcard if available - depending on the digital format of the soundcard (either optical or coaxial) - to the corresponding input of Decoderstation 5.

Some notebooks and soundcards route their digital output through the regular minijack output which is activated by the PC software control components and requires a specific cable. This applies to desktops as well as notebooks.

Setup to Blu-ray or DVD player/recorder
You can connect any current model to the Decoderstation 5. The DVD player /recorder connects directly and does not need its own decoder: depending on the digital format of the device, the connection is established via optical or coaxial input and results in pure 5.1 surround sound.

Setup to your games console
Now you can enjoy serious 5.1 sound from your Xbox or PlayStation - provided you own a model with digital outputs. Connect the digital output of the console with the corresponding input of the Decoderstation 5.

Setup to DVB-T and satellite receiver
If your receiver has digital outputs, you can reproduce flawless Dolby Digital sound: digital out to digital in - ready! Even when your TV receiver doesn't have digital outs, you can still connect it to one of the three analogue inputs of the Decoderstation 5 through both Audio Out L/R outputs. The Dolby ProLogic matrix of the decoder delivers impressive surround sound.

Setup to TV, video recorder, MP3 player, Discman, Walkman, CD, DJ mixer, etc...
Decoderstation 5 proves its universal versatility here as well. Connect any of the devices through their respective Audio out L/R outputs to the connector and select between them as you please. The Dolby ProLogic matrix of the Decoderstation enhances stereo signals and generates remarkable surround sound on all five speakers and the subwoofer. But even "plain" stereo will sound muscular and dynamic with a Teufel subwoofer.

Easy to use
Manage every function and setting comfortably with the included remote control. Operate the Decoderstation 5 directly through dial and display on the front panel of the device. A 32 character display lets you know the current status.

Cable
You will need six RCA cables to connect the Decoderstation 5 to the subwoofer. The six cables plus a speaker cable for the satellites, are already included in the set. The cable required to connect the source to the decoder comes with the device.

Room size
A Concept E Digital system is designed to play most effectively when it's set up near your PC workstation - with a relatively short distance between listener and satellites. But our integrated system can serve just as well as a home cinema system for the entire room, provided that the listening area does not exceed a certain size.

Model	Room size
CE 200 Digital	20 m²
CE 300 Digital	25 m²

Setup as PC system
It makes sense when setting up a PC sound system to focus on the immediate area around the work space for the best playback. This is the area centred on listener and display.

Since the centre speaker reproduces the actor's dialogue, this speaker should be positioned directly above, below or next to the monitor. You might want to tilt the speaker up or down towards the listening position.

Place the front speakers to the left and right of the monitor, either on the desk or mounted against the wall. Installation at ear height or on the included table stand is optimal but heights between .80 m and 1.60 m are definitely within reason. If you place the speakers at heights outside these values you should tilt them slightly towards the listening position.

Place the rear speakers at the rear of the listening position facing the front speakers - ideally at the same height. The control software of your soundcard will let you compensate for less than optimal positioning resulting in different distances and heights.

Setup as home cinema system
If you'd like to use the Concept E 400 Digital as a home cinema sound system, we recommend you concentrate on the part of the room where the TV and sofa or seats are located. It helps to place the monitor in as central of a location as possible, opposite the listening position.

As the centre speaker is responsible for reproducing the actor's dialogue, it should be in the middle, directly below or above the TV monitor. If necessary, tilt towards the listener.

Place the front speakers as you would in conventional stereo speaker set-ups (distance to listener = distance between left and right speaker) in equal distance to both sides of the TV floor, standing or mounted on the wall. For this, we recommend the corresponding speaker stands and wall mount brackets. Using speaker stands ensures optimal playback of the satellites. Wall mounts enable the speakers to be horizontally or vertically tilted towards the listener.

When placing them on a shelf or hanging them against the wall, the speakers' height should be between 80 cm and 1.60 m. If you have to place the front speakers higher or lower than this, tilt them slightly towards the listening position. Main speakers and centre should be placed along a straight line or on a slight arc towards the TV monitor.

Choose the location of the subwoofer as you'd like, as it will not interfere with the other speakers. A good place is somewhere aligned between the two front speakers.

The position of the rear speakers should mirror the front speakers - preferably at the same height. If this is not possible, adjust them by tilting them upwards or downwards. The distance between rear speaker and listening position should be at least one metre. If you'll be sitting closer than this to the speakers, make sure the front of the speakers are not facing you directly but pointed slightly away from you toward the rest of the room. The speaker management options provided in the menu of Decoderstation 5 allow you to compensate for less than optimal speaker placement.

Wall mount / Speaker stands
The system comes with table stands; wall mounts and speaker stands are optional. The matching wall mount can be tilted horizontally or vertically. Speaker stands ensure the perfect listening height.

Satellite Speaker CE 20 FCR

The compact CE 20 FCR satellite represents the current highpoint in the development of powerful multimedia speakers at Teufel.

Despite being small in size, the micro speaker plays back all medium and high frequencies comprehensively, clearly and powerfully. The 9 x 12.5 cm casing behind a removable, floating mounted grid has a full-grown two-way system with 80 mm mid-tone speaker and 19 mm tweeter; an extremely finely tuned frequency switch ensures the harmonic interplay of these components. The curved front provides better sound radiation than conventional constructions.

An exceptionally linear frequency response is achieved in conjunction with the active filtering of the subwoofer’s multi-channel amplifier, marking new standards in the field of multimedia speakers.

The CE 20 FCR includes a matching table stand, but it can also be attached to the wall and swivelled horizontally/vertically using the optional Shortlock wall bracket. Attaching the speaker to the separately available M 50 P stand allows it to be placed freely in the room.

5.1 Subwoofer CE 400 SW

The high performance of the Concept E 400 SW may redefine the field of multimedia subwoofers. Because there's no more to more.

The 5.1 amplifier distributes the 500 watts maximum performance to six channels. And 225 watts of those are allocated just for the bass in the 63 litre reflex casing. This makes sense, because an imposing 300 mm chassis lays waiting for an ample power supply to allow it to mercilessly play out its advantages: 32 Hz lower limit frequency, 500 watts maximum level – while remaining clean, precise and free from noise.

Three illuminated regulators on the front enable direct control of the total volume, bass proportion and the On/Standby operating mode. The power consumption in the standby mode here remains less than 1 watts.

The Concept E 400 SW is only available as part of a Concept E 400 set.

Read more "If you're looking for great surround sound for your games and movies, but haven't got a huge wad of cash burning a hole in your pocket, Teufel has you covered. The Concept E 400s are the latest addition to the Teufel multimedia range. The speakers produce big sound, far bigger in fact than I would have expected from this all in one system. The key to that big sound is the truly massive subwoofer that's the cornerstone of the whole setup. I've seen bigger subwoofers, but not as a part of a multimedia system like this, and certainly not at this price point. Of course it's not just a subwoofer, since that big black box also houses the amplification for all the satellites as well as for the sub itself. If you want numbers, the CE 400 subwoofer has a 500W amplifier hiding inside, but 250W of that power is dedicated to driving the sub, leaving 50W per channel for each of the satellite speakers. That's a pretty generous spread of power, and the decision to funnel half of it to the low frequency channel pays real benefits when you're watching an explosive action scene, or playing through a particularly hairy fire-fight in, say, Halo "3" or "Gears of War 2". As is usually the case with Teufel speakers, they look good as well as sounding good. The subwoofer is finished in glossy black, which will no doubt complement the majority of high definition TVs that it's likely to share a room with. There are, what looks like, three dials on the front of the sub, although the centre one is actually just a button that toggles between standby and on. The right dial is the master volume for the whole set, while the left dial controls the amount of bass, which can be set from a mild atmospheric rumble to window shaking earthquake levels!" Conclusion "If you've already got a high definition TV, a games console, a PC and a Blu-ray player, you're probably already thinking about a surround sound system to get the most out of your kit. And if you're in that position, the Concept E 400 and Decoderstation 5 will make the perfect addition."
