Teufel Varion CoreStation

Create space for the things that matter to you. The CoreStation operates discreetly in the background. It is less than half the size of conventional AV receivers from popular manufacturers, yet it can do more than just replace them.

The CoreStation decodes DTS and Dolby Digital and includes decoders for Dolby Pro Logic II. This makes it ready for any incoming audio format, whether from a TV, Blu-ray player, Wii U, PlayStation 3 and 4, Xbox 360, or One. No additional AV receivers, splitters, or amplifiers are needed. The CoreStation offers 4 HDMI inputs, 1 HDMI output, 3 analog and 3 digital audio inputs, providing connections for a TV, game console, Blu-ray or DVD player, smartphone, or tablet. On the output side, there are high-level connections plus a subwoofer RCA jack for 5.1 speaker systems and a headphone output available. The rear speakers can be wirelessly controlled with the RearStation 4.

With HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel), you can easily connect your TV and Blu-ray player to the CoreStation using just one HDMI cable for each device. The video from the Blu-ray player passes through the CoreStation to the TV. The audio from TV broadcasts is transmitted back through the HDMI cable's return channel (ARC), so you save on the extra audio cable from the TV.
