FAQs

Best speaker placement for my sound bar?

For the best surround sound experience, position the sound bar and subwoofer as shown. The sound bar should be close to ear level.

If the subwoofer is too boomy or lacking impact, adjust the Subwoofer level with your remote control or try various placements.

[Diagram Description: Two illustrations show optimal placement for a soundbar and subwoofer. One shows the soundbar placed at ear level, and the subwoofer nearby. The second illustration shows the soundbar and subwoofer positioned for a wider soundstage.]
