Episode SIG-36-IC Signature 3 6in In Ceiling Speaker

If you want an in-ceiling speaker that sounds “right” in real rooms, the Episode SIG-36-IC Signature 3 is a strong choice. It’s engineered for wide dispersion, low distortion, and a flatter frequency response, so music and dialogue feel balanced across the listening area, not just directly under the speaker.

Sound That Works for Music and TV

This model pairs a 6in polypropylene woofer with a silk dome tweeter, a combo that’s known for smooth, all-purpose performance. You get clear vocals for TV, clean highs for acoustic tracks, and a full sound that holds together even when the volume comes up.

Installer-Friendly, Job-Site Practical

Episode built the Signature line to be fast and consistent to install. The Push Lock by Swarm system helps you lock the speaker in place quickly, and the one-step or two-step install option lets you choose speed or extra control depending on the ceiling and access. The flush-mount design also keeps the finished look modern and clean, which matters a lot in living rooms, kitchens, and offices.

When to Recommend It

Whole-home audio zones (kitchen, living room, hallway, bedrooms)

Home theater overheads for a cleaner ceiling aesthetic

Small business background music where even coverage matters

If you’re building a full system, this is a great “standardize on one speaker” pick. It’s 8-ohm, 89 dB sensitivity, and rated up to 20 kHz, so it plays nicely with most residential amplifiers and multi-room setups.

Quick spec callouts: 8 ohms, 89 dB sensitivity, 6in speaker size, approx. 4.8in depth, 9.6in overall diameter, 4.6 lb weight, and a lifetime limited warranty.

Benefits
You get a more even, room-filling sound with less harshness, easier installs that save time per speaker, and a clean ceiling finish that homeowners actually like. It’s a reliable choice for scaling multi-room audio because the voicing is consistent and the speaker is designed to be flexible across different rooms and use cases.
