Placement Options
Tabletop Mounting
SoloCinema Studio comes with extra riser feet (two per side) that
magnetically attach to the bar to raise it as much as 15.2 mm (5/8")
off the tabletop so the bar will clear the TV’s protruding table stand.
Attach magnetic feet: Peel off the protective cover and expose the
magnets. Attach the feet to the bottom edge of the sound bar.
What if the bar blocks your TV’s remote IR receiver?
Note: The SoloCinema Studio could block your TV’s remote “eye,”
making it impossible to control the TV via remote control, so we
supply an IR asher. Plug the asher into the bar’s IR output and
position it in front of the TV’s eye.
IR INPUT
For custom installations: the IR input is more likely to be used with a
home automation system, like Crestron or Control 4. This is often just an
electrical connection to a piece of equipment.
IR OUTPUT
Caption: The LED side has an adhesive backing and can be mounted to the TV’s IR

Mounting the Sound Bar on the Wall
The SoloCinema Studio sound bar has built-in keyhole slots so you can
wall-mount it beneath your wall-mounted television. Spacers are included
to help secure and install your sound bar on the wall.
Note: DO NOT mount the sound bar directly to the wall. You must use the
supplied wall-mount spacers to ensure proper operation and reliability.
Note: DO MAKE SURE you are using a wall anchors capable of
supporting the sound bar.

Tips For Wall Mounting the Sound Bar
Leveling the sound bar: Use a bubble level to make sure the bar is level.
Mark holes with pencil, taking the keyhole slot measurement from the bar.
Drill Screw Holes in Wall: Pre-drill the pilot-hole locations for mounting
screws (not included). Use screws rated to hold securely in the wall
material and have screw heads at least 0.33" (8.5 mm) in diameter.
NOTE: Measure Twice Make sure the sound bar clears the ceiling,
adjacent walls, corners, beams, lighting xtures and door/window
frames. Leave at least 1-2" (25-50 mm) above the sound bar location to
allow the sound bar to slide onto the screws. Make sure the center of the
bar is centered with the TV screen’s center point.
Hang Sound bar on Posts: Line up the bar so that the screw heads
slide into the keyhole slots. Slide the bar down so the screw heads
hold the bar rmly in place.
Caption: The sound bar can be mounted on a wall with built-in keyhole slots for a
total installed on-wall depth of only 3.8" (9.5 cm). Use the supplied rubber cups
that hold the bar off the wall.
