such as on an open shelf under the TV, but keep it close
to your TV so the audio cable will reach. You can also
mount your TV on the wall above the SoundStage.
• If your TV comes with an anti-tip device, install it
according to the manufacturer's instructions and adjust
the tether after placing the TV on top the SoundStage.

the SoundStage as close as possible to the front edge
of the shelf.
• If placing the SoundStage backed up to a wall, make
sure there is at least a distance of 1 inch between the
wall and the rear of the SoundStage.
2 Make sure the TV base is centered on it
and not hanging over any of its edges.
