Hybrid Speaker M 520 F

Hybrid Speaker M 520 F

Here is a speaker that is never shy and reserved – to the contrary, it has an explosive dynamic range that begs to be cranked up. Weighing in at 35 kg, the M 520 F is 1.15 m high and 0.5 m deep, thus having an immense capacity in terms of mass and volume. This capacity is put to optimal use thanks to the precise and inspired engineering from Teufel.

This floorstanding speaker contains two 2 x 160 mm carbon fibre woofers, a 25 mm neodymium tweeter and a side-firing 300 mm woofer. In this configuration, the front panel can be conveniently narrow even though the speaker has monumental bass response. The integrated bass driver functions purely as a subwoofer coupled at 80 Hz and driven by a separate 190 W amplifier. The universal connectors on the rear terminal allow the integrated active subwoofer to be connected to either the ‘Sub Out’ of an AV receiver or the speaker terminals of your stereo amplifier. In any case, this relieves your amplifier/receiver from bass duties and frees it up to concentrate more on the other frequency ranges.

Using the M 520 F, you will dramatically improve the bass response of your stereo system. In home theatre environments, you will effectively add two subwoofers to your system. A three-stage volume selector switch allows you to select how much bass is split between the subwoofer and tweeter/mid-range drivers and thus match the system to your listening environment. This active/passive construction is effective all the way down to 30 Hz and can generate breathtaking sound pressure levels as high as 105 dB/m!
