INTERMEZZO 2.6p
The Infinity Intermezzo 2.6p is designed to offer excellent
performance in any listening room or home theater system.
However, the following placement guidelines and suggestions will
start you on your way to achieving optimum performance.
Remember, these are guidelines. We suggest you experiment with
positioning the loudspeakers to determine their ideal placement
in your particular listening room.
Note: Each speaker may be placed as either the right or left
channel.Their performance will be identical.
2-Channel or Front Left and Front Right
in a Home Theater System
Generally, the system should be placed at least three feet away
from the side walls.The Intermezzo 2.6p should be placed on
strong, rigid speaker stands that place the tweeter at ear level.
In 2-channel applications, the two speakers should be equidistant
from your primary listening position. We recommend that the
angle formed between the speakers and the listening area be
between 45
°
and 60°. For example, if the speakers are 8' apart,
your listening position should be 8' to 12' from each speaker.
See Figure 1. With wider speaker separations, it may be
advantageous to slightly angle the speakers, aiming them
toward the listening area.
When used as part of a home theater system, you may find that
you achieve excellent performance with the left and right
speakers spread apart even further. Feel free to experiment with
the placement of the speakers to achieve the best possible sound
in your listening room.
Surround Channels in a Home Theater System
When used as part of a Dolby* Pro Logic*,THX
®
, or discrete 5.1
channel home theater system, the surround speakers should be
placed at the sides of, and directed toward, the main listening
area. See Figure 2. If there are several rows of seating, place the
speakers, as described above, perpendicular to, or slightly
behind, the last row of seating.
When used as part of a 7-channel music or home theater system,
place the side speakers at the sides of and directed toward the
main listening area. If there are several rows of seating, place
the speakers, as described above, perpendicular to the middle
row of seating.The rear speakers should be placed along the
rear wall facing the front of the room. Each rear speaker should
be about 1/3 of the way into the room, but never to the outside of
the listening area. See Figure 3.
