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

The speaker frame and grill can be painted to match the ceiling color. If it is necessary to paint the 

frame while installed, the provided paint mask should be used in place of the grille to protect the 

speaker. Only paint the grill when it has been removed from the speaker.
The grill should be painted with great care taken not to clog the fine holes with paint.  

Options of painting are: 
  • Spray paint (‘dust’) several thin layers instead of a few thick layers. 
  • Use a ‘dry’ brush or roller to minimize the amount of paint applied in each layer.

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 1.866.424.4489.

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.

TREBLE LEVELCONTROL

• After the speaker is installed, please test the speaker using familiar music or content.   

  The 500 series DVC speaker allows you to independently control the amount of treble.   

  in each tweeter. This is convenient in installation areas that have a large amount of  

  reflective surfaces, such as glass, hardwood floors, concrete, etc. 
•  Carefully insert the magnetic grille into the speaker.
