Below is an April 18, 2003 review by Home Theater Review:
"The Intermezzo subwoofer is a truly unique and revolutionary design for a number of reasons. An incredible 850-watt RMS amplifier featuring Infinity's patented Room Adaptive Bass Optimization System (R.A.B.O.S.) powers the 12" C.M.M.D. woofer. The R.A.B.O.S. system is an interactive parametric equalization system that enables the speaker to "adapt" to the listening environment.
The Intermezzo 1.2s subwoofer (15.25"x 18.25"x 13.75") features a die-cast aluminum enclosure and weighs about 62 pounds total. It includes a test CD, an electronic meter, and a key to use when dialing in the R.A.B.O.S. On the back are push button switches for high-pass/low-pass filters and 0 to 180 phase shifting, a variable 100Hz 6dB per-octave crossover, low-level inputs and the highest quality high-level inputs I have ever seen on a subwoofer. The front baffle of the sub features a gain/volume control that glows red or green to signify On/Off and three small keyholes for use when dialing in the R.A.B.O.S. system.
The Intermezzo 1.2s sub is a real back breaker. However, it is compact enough for one person to manage. It includes a 15-foot power cord to give users plenty of placement options--after all, with the built-in self equalization system, the 1.2s can be placed anywhere in the room and tuned for performance maximization. I could write an entire 3-page review just on the 1.2s sub. Not only do the performance and features warrant it, but it is the smartest subwoofer I have ever auditioned. The R.A.B.O.S. kit includes a slick Sound Level Meter, Test CD, Adjustment Key, a Bandwidth Selector and graphs. Learning how to use the system and dialing in the sub will take about an hour and the results are well worth the time spent.
I measured the subwoofer (for fun) down to 15Hz at 104.5dB. This measurement was taken in a subjective environment, but the fact remains: the Intermezzo sub hits low and loud. Add in the sheer musical quality of the 1.2s and the result equals the most well rounded subwoofer I've laid ears on. Couple that bone crushing bass output with the headroom and top-end output, and you've got one heck of a dynamic speaker ensemble."
