SPEAKER PLACEMENT

PLACING THE SOUNDBAR ON A TABLE
If your TV is placed on a table, you can place the soundbar on the table directly
in front of the TV stand, centered with the TV screen.
As long as the surface of the table is flat, the soundbar will rest on its rubber
bumpers.

PLACING THE SUBWOOFER

The performance of a subwoofer is directly related to its placement in the listening
room and its physical position relative to the other speakers in the system.

While it is true that in general, our ears do not hear directional sounds at the law
frequencies where subwoofers operate, when installing a subwoofer within the
limited confines of a room, the reflections, standing waves and absorptions
generated within the room will strongly influence the performance of any
subwoofer system. As a result, the specific location of the subwoofer in the room
does become important to the amount and quality of bass that is produced.

PLACING THE SUBWOOFER

11

For example, placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the
amount of bass in the room; placing it in a corner generally will maximize
amount of bass in the room. However, corner placement can also increase the
destructive effect of standing waves on bass performance. This effect can vary
depending on the listening position – some listening positions may yield very
good results, while others may have far too much (or too little) bass at certain
frequencies.

In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the soundbar can
produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the
left and right speakers. In some rooms, the best performance could even result
from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position .

We strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a
final location for your subwoofer. One way you can determine the best location
for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing
music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room
while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be
placed), and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is best.
Place the subwoofer in that location.

IMPORTANT: The maximum wireless operation distance between the soundbar
and subwoofer is approximately 50 feet (15.3m).

WALL MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLATION GUIDE

1.Take out the soundbar, paperboard, assembling bolt, bracket screw,
plastic wall mounting bracket and wall mounting screw.

2.Draw out the location of the holes for the screws by paperboard and
pencil, to confirm the location of the plastic wall mounting bracket.
Please make sure that the paperboard is horizontal and the height of the
soundbar is suitable for you.

3.Please drill 8 holes according to the location you drawed on the wall by
pencil.

4.Punch the assembling bolts into the holes on the wall.

5.Align the holes on plastic wall mounting bracket with the holes on
paperboard and wall, then fasten with 8 screws through the assembling
bolts.

6.Screw the two wall mounting screws on the rear panel of soundbar, then
you can hang up your soundbar on the middle holes of both plastic wall
mounting bracket easily.
