INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT

Installation Precautions

  • Install on a vertical wall only.
  • Do not install in a place with high temperature or humidity.
  • Verify whether the wall is strong enough to support the product’s weight. If not, reinforce the wall or choose another installation point
  • Purchase and use the fixing screws or anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plasterboard, iron board, wood, etc.).  If possible, fix the support screws into the wall studs.
  • Purchase wall mounting screws according to the type and thickness of the wall you want to mount the Soundbar.
    •  Diameter: M5
    • Length: 35 mm or longer recommended
  • Connect cables from the unit to external devices before you install the Soundbar on the wall.
  • Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged before you install it. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.

Wallmount Components

Bracket-Wall Mount L Bracket-Wall Mount R

  • Place the Wall Mount Guide against the wall surface.
    The Wall Mount Guide must be level.
    If your TV is mounted on the wall, install the Soundbar at least 5 cm below the TV.
  • Align the Wall Mount Guide’s Centre Line with the center of your TV (if you are mounting the Soundbar below your TV), and then fix the Wall Mount Guide to the wall using tape.
    If you are not mounting below a TV, place the Centre Line in the center of the installation area.
  • Push a pen tip or sharpened pencil tip through the center of the B-TYPE images on each end of the Guide to mark the holes for the supporting screws, and then remove the Wall Mount Guide.
  • Using an appropriately sized drill bit, drill a hole in the wall at each marking.
    If the markings do not correspond to the positions of studs, make sure you insert appropriate anchors or mollies into the holes before you insert the support screws. If you use anchors or mollies, make sure the holes you drill are large enough for the anchors or mollies you use.
  • Push a screw (not supplied) through each Holder-Screw, and then screw each screw firmly into a support screw hole.
  • Use the two Screws (M4 x L12) to attach both Bracket-Wall Mount L and R to the Soundbar’s bottom. For a proper fit, make sure to link the bumps on the Soundbar to the holes in the brackets.
  • When assembling, make sure the hanger part of the Bracket-Wall Mounts is located behind the rear of the Soundbar. Rear of Soundbar
  • The left and right mounts are different shapes. Make sure to position them correctly.
  • Install the Soundbar with the attached Bracket-Wall Mounts by hanging the Bracket-Wall Mounts on the Holder-Screwson wall.

Detaching the Soundbar from the Wall To separate the Soundbar from the wall mount, push it in the direction of the arrow, tilt it up slightly, and then pull it away from the wall as shown.

  • Do not hang onto the installed unit and avoid striking or dropping the unit.
  • Secure the unit firmly to the wall so that it does not fall off. If the unit falls off, it may cause an injury or damage the product.
  • When the unit is installed on a wall, please make sure that children do not pull any of the connecting cables, as this may cause it to fall.
  • For the optimal performance of a wall mount installation, install the speaker system at least 5 cm below the TV, if the TV is mounted on the wall.
  • For your safety, if you do not mount the unit on the wall, install it on a secure, flat surface where it is unlikely to fall.

FAQS SAMSUNG Soundbar

What is a Samsung soundbar?

A Samsung soundbar is an audio device designed to enhance the sound quality of your TV or home entertainment system. It is a long, slender speaker system that can be placed in front of or mounted below your TV. Soundbars are meant to provide a better audio experience than the built-in speakers of your TV, offering clearer dialogue, immersive surround sound, and powerful bass.

How does a Samsung soundbar work?

Samsung soundbars use advanced audio technology to improve sound quality. They come with multiple speakers inside the slim enclosure, including tweeters, mid-range drivers, and sometimes a separate subwoofer for bass. Soundbars are designed to bounce sound off walls and other surfaces to create a more spacious and surround sound-like experience without the need for multiple speakers and wires.

Do I need a separate subwoofer with a Samsung soundbar?

Not all Samsung soundbars require a separate subwoofer, as some models come with built-in subwoofers to handle low-frequency sounds. However, for a more powerful and immersive bass experience, Samsung also offers soundbars that come with a wireless or wired external subwoofer. Adding a separate subwoofer can greatly enhance the overall audio quality and provide a richer movie-watching or music-listening experience.

What audio formats do Samsung soundbars support?

Samsung soundbars typically support a variety of audio formats, including popular ones like Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM (Pulse Code Modulation). High-end models may also support advanced formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, providing more immersive surround sound experiences.

Can I mount a Samsung soundbar on the wall?

Yes, many Samsung soundbars come with mounting brackets or have provisions for wall mounting. If you prefer a clean and streamlined look, you can mount the soundbar below or above your TV on the wall. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and use appropriate mounting hardware to ensure the soundbar is securely attached to the wall.

Do Samsung soundbars work with Samsung TVs only?

No, Samsung soundbars are designed to be compatible with various TV brands, not just Samsung. As long as your TV has the necessary audio output options (HDMI ARC, optical, or Bluetooth), you should be able to connect and use a Samsung soundbar with it.

Can I use a Samsung soundbar with other home theater components, like a DVD player or gaming console?

Yes, Samsung soundbars can be used with various home theater components. If your DVD player, gaming console, or other audio sources have compatible audio output options (HDMI, optical, or Bluetooth), you can connect them to the soundbar just like you would with your TV. This way, you can enjoy improved audio quality from all your entertainment devices.

Can I use voice assistants with Samsung soundbars?

Some Samsung soundbar models come with built-in voice assistants like Amazon Alexa or Samsung’s Bixby. These voice assistants allow you to control certain functions of the soundbar using voice commands. Additionally, if your soundbar supports Bluetooth, you can connect it to an external device with a voice assistant, such as a smartphone or a smart speaker, and use that device’s voice capabilities to control the soundbar.

What is the Samsung Acoustic Beam technology?

Samsung’s Acoustic Beam technology is a feature found in some of their higher-end soundbars. It uses upward-firing speakers to bounce sound off the ceiling and create a more immersive sound experience, simulating the effect of overhead speakers in a home theater setup. This technology helps to deliver a more three-dimensional and spacious sound, especially in soundbars that support Dolby Atmos or DTS:X audio formats.

Are Samsung soundbars wireless?

Samsung soundbars often come with both wired and wireless connectivity options. Most soundbars can be connected to your TV or other audio sources using cables like HDMI and optical. Additionally, many Samsung soundbars support wireless connections via Bluetooth, allowing you to stream audio from compatible devices without the need for physical cables.
