INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing Episode® speakers. To complete installation,
follow these guidelines. Visit our website for design recommendations and
speaker calculators.
SETUP
Subwoofer Placement
Episode® subwoofers are designed to make your music and movies come
alive. However, the placement of the subwoofer can affect its performance.
All rooms are different, but the strongest output will likely occur if you
place your subwoofer in the front of the room on the same wall as your
front channel speakers.
Keep subwoofer about 2 feet away from corners and other surfaces that
might interfere with or reflect sound, such as tall furniture.
Existing Construction Install
Make a cutout for the speaker using the supplied template. Allow space
for the bezel if installing near adjacent objects, or cut the hole in two steps
as shown below.
1. Cut the drywall at a 45° angle so that if the
speaker is too close to an obstruction, you
can easily ‘plug’ the hole.
2. If there are no obstructions, cut the drywall
again, this time at a 90° angle.
3. Insert the speaker into the cutout.

SECURE
Tighten each of the six screws to clamp the subwoofer
against the wall.
When mounting next to a stud, ensure there is enough
room for the dog legs to rotate out and clamp the stud.
Place the grill over the subwoofer, making sure it is
flush against the wall.
!
CAUTION: Do not overtighten screws. This could
result in damage to both the subwoofer and wall.
