Controls and Connections

INTERMEZZO 4.1t

The Infinity Intermezzo 4.1t offers unprecedented

flexibility for connecting the system to any type of

audio or home theater system. Consult the table at

right to determine which system description most

closely matches your own, then follow the hookup

method corresponding to that system.

If none of these system configurations seem to

match yours, consult your dealer or Infinity customer

service for direction on how best to hook up your

system.

For Methods 2, 3a, 3b and 4, make sure all bass-

management features are properly set. The Audio

channels should all be set to “Small”or “High-

Pass”and the subwoofer set to “On.”

Final Positioning

After correctly connecting the Intermezzo 4.1t and

verifying that both the subwoofer and main section

portions are playing, it is time to optimize the

system for your particular listening room.

Earlier, you placed the loudspeakers in their

general location. Finding the exact location for

optimum performance sometimes only involves

moving the speakers up to a few inches in any

direction.We urge you, therefore, to experiment

with placement until your speakers deliver their full

potential.When the speakers are moved inward

(toward each other) there is generally better focus

of instruments and vocalists; however, moving the

speakers too close together can reduce the

spaciousness of the stage effect and you may

need to experiment with the trade-off between

focus and imaging. If your listening room is larger

than average and your listening position is

relatively far from the speakers, wider placement of

the speakers may be required.

Operation

INTERMEZZO 4.1t

The operation of the Intermezzo 4.1t loudspeaker system, and the proper

settings for the Room Adaptive Bass Optimization System,™or R.A.B.O.S.,

™

is thoroughly covered in the Owner’s Guide, part# 336205-001.

For service purposes, the R.A.B.O.S. system is canceled when all three front

panel controls (F) (L) (W) are turned fully CW.

Position of the Bass Mode switch, for simple testing purposes:

Using the high-level (Speaker) inputs, switch should be in position 3.

Using the line-level (RCA) inputs, switch should be in position 1.

The only other control of concern is the Main Level Control on the front

panel, which operates like a traditional potentiometer.
