Infinity INTERLUDE 108IL40B - Manual (Page 2)

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 “Home Theater” below if you also plan to use the
speakers for home-theater reproduction.
Home Theater
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 the TV picture.
For rear-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.
