SYSTEM AURAL SWEEP TEST

Equipment needed:

Function/signal generator/sweep generator

Integrated Amplifier

Multimeter

Speaker cables

General Unit Function (UUT = Unit Under Test)

1. Remove the loudspeaker grille.

2. Depress the "High-Pass Filter" button on the rear faceplate; switch the TV control to None.

3. Connect one pair of speaker cables to the input terminals on UUT. Cables should be

connected to an integrated amplifier fed by the signal generator.

4. Turn on signal generator and adjust so that speaker level output at the amplifier is 7.0V, 80 Hz.

5. Plug in AC power cord and turn on UUT with the power switch; LED on the Level control

should light - Red initially and Green after step #6 is followed.

6. Turn up the level control on the front of the UUT to "10". (Maximum). Woofers should be

driving close to maximum excursion at this point.

Sweep Function

1. Follow steps 1-6 above, using a sweep generator as a signal source.

2. Sweep generator from 20Hz to 300Hz. Listen to the cabinet and drivers for any rattles, clicks,

buzzes or any other noises. If any unusual noises are heard, remove woofers and test.

Driver Function

1. Remove woofers from cabinet; (See Page 9), detach + and - wire clips.

2. Check DC resistance of woofer; each driver should be 7.7 ohms ±10%

3. Connect a pair of speaker cables to driver terminals. Cables should be connected to an

integrated amplifier fed by a signal generator. Turn on generator and adjust so that speaker

level output is 5.0V.

4. Sweep generator from 20Hz to 1kHz. Listen to driver for any rubbing, buzzing, or other

unusual noises.

Service Bulletin

Service Bulletin INF2002-03 - February 2002 Warranty labor rate: MINOR repair

To: All Infinity Service Centers

Model: Intermezzo 3.5c

Subject: No Output

In the event you receive an Intermezzo 3.5c center channel loudspeaker with the complaint: “There is

no output, and the LED on the volume control does not light, red or green”, check the items listed

below:

Check the 3A line fuse to make sure it’s not open. If open, replace with a 3A MDL (.25 x 1.25) slo-blo fuse,

Infinity part# 80126.

Locate R22 in the power supply section, as shown below.

If value of R22 is not 100k ohms ±5%, then replace R22 with a 1/2 Watt 100k ohm ±5%, resistor.

1. Remove the grille. Lay the loudspeaker on its face on a padded surface, amplifier facing upwards.

2. Remove the black metal bottom cover, (10) Phillips screws; remove the (6) Phillips screws on the amplifier

faceplate.

3. Lift the amplifier out of the enclosure cavity; detach connectors when necessary for access.

4. Locate the power supply section and R22 from the illustrations below. R22 can be checked in-circuit and

should be 100k ohms ±5%. If it is any other value, or open, replace with Infinity part# RC0082.

5. Replace the amplifier, bottom cover, and test the loudspeaker.

IM 3.5c ADJUST BIAS PROCEDURE

(Mandatory when any output MOSFET transistors Q3,4,7,8 are replaced)

1. Amplifier should be unplugged and OFF.

2. Remove Amp assembly from cabinet, following the instructions on Page 9. All wires can

remain connected unless they will prevent you from removing the amplifier or accessing

potentiometers on the Linear board PCB in the following steps.

3. Locate the Linear board assembly (PCB with the output transistors)

4. Adjust R11 and R27 fully Counter Clockwise. See diagram below.

5. Apply 120 VAC power to unit, Turn power switch ON.

6. Verify LED illuminates on the front gain control dial unless you have disconnected the plug.

7. Remove shorting plug on terminal J7 on Linear board, and insert current meter, set to the

low mA range.

8. Verify initial current is less then 1 mA.

9. Adjust R11 Clockwise until current meter reads 5 mA + the initial current from step #8.

10.Adjust R27 Clockwise until current meter now reads 10 mA + the initial current from step #8.

11.Turn amplifier OFF. Disconnect AC power to unit.

12.Remove current meter; insert shorting plug back in terminal J7.

13.Replace cover (if present), wires if disconnected, and replace amplifier back into cabinet.
