INTERLUDE™SPEAKER SYSTEMS

Infinity Interlude Series

The Interlude Series of loudspeakers continues Infinity’s

longstanding commitment to accurate sound reproduction.

Our proprietary Ceramic Metal Matrix Diaphragm™(C.M.M.D.)

drivers,precision dividing networks and rigid,well-braced

enclosures combine to deliver uncompromised performance in

any stereo or multichannel home-theater system.In addition,

the IL10,IL30 and IL40 are magnetically shielded for safe

placement adjacent to a television.

If you suspect damage from transit,report it immediately to

your dealer.Keep the shipping carton and packing materials

for future use.

Stereo

Before deciding where to place your Interlude speakers,survey

your room and think about placement,keeping the following

points in mind:

•For best results,place the speakers 6'–8' apart.

•Position each speaker so that the tweeter is at approximately

ear level.

•Generally,bass output will increase as the speaker is moved

closer to a wall or corner.

•Refer to“HomeTheater”below if you also plan to use the

speakers for home-theater reproduction.

HomeTheater

For front-channel use,place one speaker on the left and another

on the right along either side of the television monitor.Since the

speakers are magnetically shielded,you can place them without

worrying about the field distorting theTV picture.

Forrear-channel use,place speakers on bookshelves or stands

alongside the listening position.Final placement depends on

room acoustics,availability of space and your listening

preference (Figure 2).

NOTE:An Infinity powered subwoofer will add impact and

realism to both music and film soundtracks.Contact your local

Infinity dealer for recommendations on subwoofer models for

your application.

IL30 and IL40

Refer to Figure 3 as you perform the following steps:

1. Open each accessory pack and locate the following items:

four feet (with spike/round ends),four locking nuts,four

nylon domes and one wrench.

2. Lay each speaker on its side and locate the four threaded

holes on the bottom.

3. For carpets,screw the round end of a foot into each hole

and hand-tighten a nut onto each one.Leave a minimum of

5/8" of exposed spike.(On thicker carpets,you can increase

the length of exposed spike up to 1-1/8.") For hard-surface

floors,screw the spike end into each hole instead and leave

5/8" of round end exposed.

4. Carefully flip each speaker upright to sit on its feet.

5. If needed,adjust the feet so each speaker is level and then

tighten each nut with the enclosed wrench.To protect hard

surfaces (e.g.,wood floors),slip a nylon dome onto each

round end.

WIRING THE SYSTEM

FIGURE 4–This example shows how to connect bare wires to the

terminals.Banana plugs may also be inserted directly into the rear of the

connector.

IMPORTANT:Make sure all equipment is turned off before

making any connections.

For speaker connections,use a minimum #16-gauge speaker

wire with polarity coding.The side of the wire with a ridge or

other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e.,+).

NOTE: If desired,consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker

wire and connection options.

The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire

connectors.The most common connection is shown in Figure 4.

To ensure proper polarity,connect each +terminal on the back

of the amplifier or receiver to the respective +(red) terminal on

each speaker,as shown in Figure 5.Connect the –(black)

terminals in a similar way.See the owner’s guides that were

included with your amplifier,receiver and television to confirm

connection procedures.

IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e.,+ to –or –to +)

when making connections.Doing so will cause poor imaging and

diminished bass response.

channel of a stereo or home-theater system.

1. Loosen the terminals and remove

strapping bars.

2. Insert the speaker wire for the

high frequencies into the top set

of terminals and tighten.

3. Insert the speaker wire for the

low frequencies into the bottom

set of terminals and tighten.

BI-WIRING

The Interlude Series outer connection panel and internal dividing

network are designed so that separate sets of speaker cables can be

attached to the low-frequency transducer and midrange/high-frequency

transducer portions of this dividing network.This is called bi-wiring.

Bi-wiring can provide several sonic advantages and considerably more

flexibility in power amplifier selection.

6INTERLUDE

Check the speakers for playback first by setting the system

volume control to a minimum level,and then by applying power to

your audio system.Play a favorite music or video segment and

increase the system volume control to a comfortable level.

NOTE:You should hear balanced audio reproduction across the

entire frequency spectrum.If not,check all wiring connections or

consult the authorized Infinity dealer from whom you purchased

the system for more help.

The amount of bass you hear and the stereo-image quality will be

affected by a number of different factors,including the room’s

size and shape,the construction materials used to build the

room,the listener’s position relative to the speakers,and the

position of the speakers in the room.

Listen to a variety of music selections and note the bass level.

If there is too much bass,move the speakers away from nearby

walls.Conversely,if you place the speakers closer to the walls,

there will be more bass output.

Nearby reflecting surfaces can adversely affect stereo-imaging

quality.If this happens,try angling the speakers slightly inward

toward the listening position until the desired effect is achieved.

Each Interlude Series cabinet has a wood-vinyl finish that

does not require any routine maintenance.When needed,use

a soft cloth,dampened with water only,to remove any

fingerprints or dust.

Clean the grille by gentle vacuuming.

NOTE: Do not use any cleaning products or polishes on the

cabinet or grille.
