Product Information

Soundbars aren't just for use with TVs, though – you can also use one to listen to music from your phone, tablet or laptop. We'll show you how. You might need to change the delay and volume levels, as every room has its own shape, layout and furniture, and these all affect the sound. 5. Adjust the subwoofer level

It’s also important to have a good idea of your expectations in terms of quality too. You may not actually be looking for the best quality product if your main goal is to get cheap Home cinema systems and sound bars. So spend some time considering what’s important to you and think about the areas that you’d be happy to compromise or not. If your soundbar has an external subwoofer, it might need a cable connection. Others are wireless and can be placed elsewhere, but generally it should be within 10 metres of the soundbar. Dolby Atmos uses upwards-firing speakers to bounce sound off the ceiling, to put you in the middle of the action. If your soundbar supports it, follow the instruction menu so you can get it set up for your specific room shape and size. 6. Furnishings Still having problems with your set-up?

If possible, place your soundbar directly in front of your TV and watch head on for the best results. The answer could be simply that your soundbar isn't actually producing any audio, meaning you'll still be listening to your TV's speakers. Try to keep the cable clear of other connectors (especially power) in the tangle of wires behind your TV. Simply moving the 3.5mm cable can sometimes solve this issue.This will allow you to use your TV remote to adjust the volume coming from the soundbar. 4. Adjust the sound Look for a setting called ‘Audio Delay’ or similar on the box that’s causing the problem, and adjust it notch by notch until you’re happy that your audio and video are perfectly in-sync again. My soundbar's remote control isn't working properly Don’t be tempted to hide your soundbar in your TV cabinet – your new speaker will sound boxed in and you won’t get the most from it.

If your video device (such as a Sky box, TV box or DVD player) is plugged directly into your soundbar, it’s possible for your sound to get ahead of (fall behind) the image on your TV.

TVs usually have one or both of these outputs, so you’ll be able to hook yours up to your soundbar without any issue.

Like any other speaker system, soundbars benefit from a bit of extra time and care when you first set them up.
