FEATURES

World-Class BASH® Hybrid Amplifier Technology

Incorporating the latest BASH amplifier technology to maximize performance while generating little heat. 

Episode MEGA Control App

Through the use of advanced digital signal processing, most of the standard back panel analog adjustments have 
been incorporated into an easy, accurate app.

The app allows you to set up and adjust the Volume, Pre-set EQ Modes, Phase control, Delay, Auto Off/On, Low 
Pass, Parametric EQ, and Automatic Equalization.

NOTE:

 A Bluetooth 4.0, low-energy, iOS or Android device is required for proper 

setup, control, and use of the app.

High-Quality / Furniture-Grade Cabinets

Attractive, furniture-quality cabinets provide the ultimate in rigidity and sound clarity.

•  S Series available in attractive matte black finish. 
•  D Series available in polished gloss black or walnut wood veneer finish.

Automatic Equalization

The built-in, high-performance DSP and the Episode MEGA app allow for simplified and 

precise equalization 

corrections of the subwoofer, to your position in the room. The app allows for multiple subwoofers in the same 

room, or home, to be independently equalized and controlled.

Inputs

• 

Unbalanced:

 Features stereo RCA line-level inputs for two-channel applications. For home theater use, the 

right RCA unbalanced input also serves as an LFE (low-frequency effects) input with a direct connection from a 

receiver or processor.

• 

High Level:

 For versatility, there are gold-plated, five-way binding-post inputs for speaker-level connections. 

• 

Wireless:

 All MEGA Series subwoofers have a built-in wireless receiver that is compatible with the optional 

Episode Subwoofer Wireless Transmitter (ES-SUB-WIFI-TX-MEGA). Connect the wireless transmitter to your  

AVR / processor subwoofer / LFE output, pair the transmitter to the subwoofer(s) in the system, and the signal 

is reliably sent to the subwoofer(s). Up to three subwoofers can be paired to a single transmitter.

• 

Balanced:

 Exclusive to the MEGA D Series subwoofers, XLR balanced inputs are provided for clean, accurate 

audio from receivers or processors with balanced outputs.

Remote Operation

Both the MEGA S Series and MEGA D Series offer an Ethernet connection for IP control with many home 
automation platforms. Currently supported drivers and IP control documentation can be found on the associated 
MEGA subwoofer product page. IP control allows for basic functionality and product status.

The MEGA D Series subwoofers also offer a dedicated 12V trigger for remote on/off functionality, without the need 
for IP connectivity.
