IN-CEILING LCR SPEAKERS
ES-HT700-ICLCR-5
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 grill can be painted to match the ceiling color. Only paint the grill when it has been
removed from the speaker. Remove the scrim cloth on the back of the grill before painting and
reapply after painting. The cloth is adhered using repositionable spray adhesive.
No need to add any adhesive when reapplying.
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 Tech Support 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.
WARRANTY
Limited Lifetime Warranty
Episode in-wall, in-ceiling and bookshelf Speakers have a Lifetime Limited Warranty. This warranty
includes parts and labor repairs on all components found to be defective in material or workmanship
under normal conditions of use. This warranty shall not apply to products which have been abused,
modified or disassembled. Products to be repaired under this warranty must be returned to SnapAV

TONE CONTROLS
• After the speaker is installed, please test the speaker using music or content you are familiar
with.
• The 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
• Place the magnetic grill over the speaker. Make sure it is flush against the ceiling.
