) –- the audio brand of custom solutions manufacturer SnapAV — is now shipping its first Soundbars and On-Wall LCRs. Shown for the first time at 2011 CEDIA EXPO, the models are the newest additions to an already robust 2nd generation lineup of home theater and 2-channel loudspeakers (presently totaling 73 models – many critically acclaimed), that have steadily come to market these past 24 months.
Containing 3-front-channels-in-1 for positioning underneath the flat panel TV in entertainment room and bedroom settings, the Episode 300 Series Soundbars are available in 30- and 40-inch widths at $499 and $599 MSRP respectively. For use as either individual front channel or surround sound speakers, also new are Episode 300 Series On-Wall LCRs for medium and large-sized TVs at $199 and $299 MSRP respectively.
Both the Soundbars and On-Wall LCRs are timbre-matched; components include .75-inch Ferro-fluid cooled silk dome tweeters, 3-inch polypropylene woofers with Nomex Spiders and high-temperature voice coils, and a 3-inch passive radiator per woofer. All are finished in a high-gloss piano black outfitted with black mesh grills.
Included installation conveniences are an integrated “knock-out” located behind the speaker grill to conceal the IR receiver; brackets for wall-mounting and a “kickstand” for shelf placement. For mounting the Soundbar directly to the flat panel TV, SnapAV’s Strong Mount line offers a bracket option that enables the Soundbar to move in tandem with the TV.
All Episode loudspeakers are backed by a lifetime warranty. Information about the products, including locating authorized dealers, is available by contacting 704.927.7608 or
