>>SIGNAL-SENSING FOR AUTOMATIC POWER CONTROL
There are three power mode options with an Episode® powered subwoofer: ‘On’, ‘Off’ and ‘Auto’. When the ‘Auto’ position is

approximately 15 minutes.

an LFE (Low Frequency Effects) input for a direct connection from the receiver or processor. For added versatility, there are also
gold-plated, ve-way binding-post inputs and outputs for speaker-level connections.
>> REMOVABLE GRILL
The grill can be easily removed to enable simple volume adjustment.
