another approach is to place a VERY small, about .001 microfarad ceramic capacitor, in parallel with the speaker wires, as close to the amp as possible.

The capacitor needs to be of a low value because a)more is not needed and b)a lot of capacitance on an amp output sometimes causes amps to oscillate at inaudibly high frequencies. Take a scope out and see what happens; a blown tweeter is a good but wasteful indicator of oscillation.

I am not familiar with the intellinet system, so -- does each room have its own power amp? If so, do ALL the speakers in the house play this signal, but they have only notice it in the one room because they are not likely to start troubleshooting at 3 a.m.?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
