Setup and Installation

The MOUNTUP Universal Soundbar Mount MU9122 offers flexible installation options: directly to a wall (wood studs or concrete) or attached to your existing TV mount, either above or below the television.

Installation Options Overview

This image illustrates the four primary installation methods for the soundbar mount: direct wall mounting on concrete or wood studs, and attachment to a TV mount either above or below the television.

Step-by-Step Installation (General)

1. Determine Mounting Location: Decide whether to mount the soundbar above or below the TV, or directly to the wall. Consider cable management and optimal sound projection.
2. Attach Main Brackets to TV Mount/Wall:
   • For TV Mount Attachment: Align the long soundbar mounting brackets with the VESA holes on the back of your TV or the TV mount. Ensure the brackets are long enough to secure to at least four VESA holes for stability. Use the provided screws and spacers that fit your TV's VESA pattern.
   • For Wall Mounting: If mounting directly to a wall, locate wood studs or use appropriate anchors for concrete walls. Mark drilling points, drill pilot holes, and secure the main brackets using lag bolts (for wood studs) or concrete anchors and bolts (for concrete).
   

   This image demonstrates the importance of using brackets long enough to secure to four VESA holes for enhanced safety and stability.

3. Adjust Bracket Position: Position the main brackets vertically to achieve the desired height for your soundbar relative to the TV. Secure them firmly.


This image demonstrates how to adjust the vertical position of the soundbar bracket on the TV mount to align with the soundbar's height.

4. Attach Rotatable Support Plates to Soundbar:
   • Soundbars with Threaded Inserts (Bottom or Back Holes): Use the provided screws to attach the rotatable support plates to the threaded inserts on your soundbar.
   • Soundbars without Threaded Inserts: The rotatable plates can extend up to 6.5 inches to cradle soundbars without direct mounting holes. Ensure the soundbar is securely seated.


This image details the attachment of the rotatable support plates to various soundbar types, including those with bottom or back mounting holes, and how the plates extend for soundbars without threaded inserts.

5. Secure Soundbar to Main Brackets: Carefully hang the soundbar (with attached support plates) onto the main brackets. Use the security screws to lock the rotatable plates and long brackets, ensuring the soundbar is sturdy and safely mounted.


This diagram illustrates the three main steps for installation: connecting the main brackets, attaching them to the TV, and then hanging the soundbar onto the brackets.

Rotatable Plate Adjustment

The low-profile rotatable plates can swivel to be less visible for aesthetic purposes. They can also be rotated to accommodate different soundbar designs and ensure a secure fit.

This image demonstrates the rotatable plates, highlighting their ability to swivel for aesthetics and adjust by 90 degrees for various soundbar configurations.

Operating

Once installed, the soundbar mount requires no further operation. Its function is to securely hold your soundbar in the desired position relative to your television. Ensure all connections are tight and the soundbar is stable after installation.

Maintenance

• Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
• Clean the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Do not hang additional items on the soundbar mount.
