Thank you for purchasing a great product from one of the best sounding
speaker lines available today, Episode ® . We appreciate your purchase
and are committed to providing the highest quality products possible.
The Episode in-ceiling models are a superb choice for almost every type
of home theater or home audio installation. They have been designed with
advanced technological components that allow for high performance and
a lifetime of enjoyment.
PAINTING
It is highly recommended that the speakers be painted prior to installation. If it is necessary to paint
them while installed, the provided paint mask should be used in place of the grille to protect the
speaker. The grille may be painted as well with great care taken not to clog the fine holes with
paint. Only paint grilles when they have been removed from the speakers.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Episode speakers are designed to function trouble-free. Most problems that occur are due to simple
issues. If you have trouble, please check the list of simple fixes below. If the problem persists,
contact Episode Customer Service at 1.866.838.5052.
NO SOUND
• Verify that there is audio coming from the source selected. Select another
source if necessary.
• Ensure that any power amplifiers are turned on and connected properly.
• Check any connections at other devices, such as a volume control. Temporarily
bypass the control if needed.
• Check wire connections at each speaker not producing sound for good contact
to bare wire, not wire insulation.

TONE CONTROLS
• After the speaker is installed, please test the speaker using music or content you are familiar with.
• The 500 and 700 series speakers allow you to control the amount of treble. The factory setting is
in the plus “+” position and gives a full and clear sound in a typical furnished room with absorption
from soft materials like carpets, furniture and people. If the room is very reverberant you decrease
the tweeter response and high frequency clarity by moving the switch to the minus “-” position
• The 700 series speakers allow you to also control the woofer crossover response. The factory setting
is also in the plus “+” position for a full and clear sound in a typical furnished room. Depending on
the room acoustics you might need to subtract some of the mid-bass to obtain better clarity by
moving the woofer switch to the minus “-” position. This is convenient in installation areas that have
a large amount of reflective surfaces, such as glass, hardwood floors, concrete, etc.
• Please adjust the control(s) until the sound is optimized for the environment
• Carefully insert the magnetic grille into the speaker.
