I guess I am a bit of a handy man. I would attach a piece of wood lengthwise using multiple fasteners. I would cover that and the nearby wall with a sound treatment. Then attach the bar to the wood and it will be rock solid. Literally you can hang from it and most important you will get zero rattle. A little glue behind the wood (not much) will also limit transient rattles. They even sell sound proofing gel type glues if you want to get fancy. Taking it off would get messy so I would just use a touch or regular glue near the ends and the middle. A few dime size amounts will do the job with minimal mess. Level it all out nicely.
So my wall is sheet rock I believe and I used a stud finder to mount my tv what do u recommend me doing not using the stud finder and just go ahead and mount the sound bar with the screws u used ?
A gap is preferable to stop vibrations between two device surfaces, allow access to any button controls on both devices (should remote controls become unserviceable), reduce any possible electrical interference between the two devices, allows cooling air to pass between both devices (potentially preventing heat-related lifespan reduction), prevents surface damage from the two devices scraping against each other whilst installing and removing, and allows a small vacuum attachment access to prevent dust ingress into the soundbar. I'm not a specialist electrical engineer but this is my take on possible reasons.
Great channel , your new subscriber Need Your Help : I Bought Samsung A650 3.1 sound bar which supports dolby digital, My TV audio setting is also set to Dolby Digital .But when I play Netflix 5.1 the sound is extremely low with no Dolby effect ...but when I switch to Netflix (original) sound stream then it sound so much better and loud.But if I am correct netflix (original) audio stream is just 2.0 sterio sound ? Why my sounbar unable to play Netflix Dolby digital audio stream 5.1? Is Netflix 5.1 works with your soundbar
My wood stud on the back of the wall doesn't line up. I have the Samsung Q990B soundbar do you think those screws are strong enough to hold just on dry walls?
I have one question wen u put the sound bar on the wall n the wires are n wall how do u charge the soundbar if it gets low or dies I’m just asking bc if I’m finna get one on my wall soon ☺️🔥
@@TellyDanthank you for the video. Note that running a power cable behind a wall like you are suggesting is against all known electrical codes. At least in the USA.
@@TellyDan ohh okay soo i think my wall is all sheet rock but I had to use a stud finder on rhsts same wall to mount my tv then should I use a stud finder on the same wall or can I just go ahead n mount my sound bar ?
Buy the 700B. Not the 600. It sounds much better- larger sub, up firing speakers and has e-ARC so much higher potential bit rate if your source supports it. I was gong to buy the 600- ordered it but then researched it and upgraded. It cost me $377 vs. $199. Both were on sale at PC Richard. I also grabbed a two year warranty. Some people do have some connectivity issues with the sub so now I am covered. On the 600 even in the store, the sub would not pair. I prefer a wired connection but for $377, the Q700B is an excellent value. It can compete with $1,000 bars. The Bose $900 was the best I heard. They had it for $699 which was tempting but it lacked some basic features and the sub was underwhelming. Even without the sub it sounded very nice. Indeed better than the $700 but I could not justify spending nearly twice the price. Warranty follows price so that would have been twice as much too. I have used their warranties before. They are not cheap but they do stand behind them 100% in my experience. It's peace of mind.
You’ll have to add a single outlet plug behind the soundbar, because you’re not supposed to run power cords behind the wall to have that “hidden wire” look since it won’t pass code (fire hazard)
Not my best quality video but the content should be relevant also excuse the mess
Thank you so much for posting this video, really helped me out with installation.
Glad it helped
Thank you so much for the instructions. Great video! You saved me a lot of time.
Thank you Sam, glad it helped

Having a hard time finding screws for mounting to the wall in the size Samsung recommends. What did you use? Bonus if you have a link.
Hi Lisa, what sort of wall do you have? If it's brick you can use the 6mm red plugs and screws. If it's a plasterboard wall use the drywall anchors
So my wall is sheet rock I believe and I used a stud finder to mount my tv what do u recommend me doing not using the stud finder and just go ahead and mount the sound bar with the screws u used ?
Well done Dan- keep posting. Andy
Cheers mate
hello bro, could you tell me what kind of bolt is the one you use? please
Hi I saw your TV are you using a screen protector like the phone
Great video! Why does it need to sit 50mm below the TV? If it was closer the cables would be less noticeable.

Thanks helped me a ton. Question where did you buy that glass over your tv?
It’s just an old model Samsung tv, they were built like that. By the looks of it I think it’s an early 2010 LCD screen model.
Yep spot on 40D5520 still going strong
with Dolby atmos soundbars would your say to leave a bigger gap between t.v. and the bar for the upwards firing speakers to work correctly ?
it's acceptable
I got the Samsung Q990B is it too heavy if no stud behind the wall?

Is the hdmi audio out on your tv settings set to dolby digital out? Sorry for the delayed reply

Use dry wall anchors, it'll be fine
@@TellyDan
Ok thanks
Great video! Thank you so much!
Thank you
I have one question wen u put the sound bar on the wall n the wires are n wall how do u charge the soundbar if it gets low or dies I’m just asking bc if I’m finna get one on my wall soon ☺️🔥
The soundbar needs a constant power supply, so I usually put the power supply behind the tv so minimal wire is showing
Does the dry wall brackets comes with the soundbar?
No you have to buy them separately, but they're cheap
I already bought and mounted to the wall.
Mine did qhen I got the q950a
What type of washers are those?
Thanks a lot. The video was helpful!
Glad it helped!
Did the they include the drywall anchor screws or did you have to buy that yourself? Thanks in advance
No I got them separately
@@TellyDan thank you!! 🙏🏽
Thabk you very much, you helped me a lot!
Glad it helped
Great video. Thanx for the help. 😃
You're most welcome
What size bolts do you use for mounting to the wall?
Not bolts, screws. Whatever fits the brackets, likely long e.g., 2" wood screws with a head that will sit flush in the bracket. Use a level.
4:42 do the dry wall anchor come with he Samsung soundbar or did you need to buy those extra
they don’t come with it
How do you hide the cables and power Rick?
Depends on your wall, if it's plasterboard with a cavity you can route them through the wall
@@TellyDanthank you for the video. Note that running a power cable behind a wall like you are suggesting is against all known electrical codes. At least in the USA.
Thank you, the video really helped!

May I ask why he didnt u use a stud finder ??
No studs, it was a temporary wall I set up. I used drywall fittings as well
@@TellyDan ohh okay soo i think my wall is all sheet rock but I had to use a stud finder on rhsts same wall to mount my tv then should I use a stud finder on the same wall or can I just go ahead n mount my sound bar ?
@@christianmartinez4631 they don't weigh much and can mount directly onto drywall plasterboard with the appropriate fixings
@@TellyDan awesome thanks for the help 👍
@@TellyDan what do you mean by appropriate fixings? Like anchor screws?

Yes. It's best choice.
OK for the drilling the screws, but bad result with cables hanging around. Cables hanging around ruined it

Thanks for up lead this video!
sounds better NOT wall mounted. Also do some sound treatments on the walls to enhance the sound and reduce echo.
Thanks for sharing
Good job
You don’t need to screw the bolts onto wall studs?
Nope as long as you've got good board fixings. The bar is quite light
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
Perfect!
Thanks
Crap how you can see the mounting bracket on the side view, it seems to be a Samsung thing.
Nice
Awesome!
👋🏻👍🏻
Thanks mate
Does anyone else's sag a little?
Maybe the tiniest bit shouldn't much though, the plastic discs should be nice and tight to the wall
the cables really annoy me.
Sigh the wires
not good wires look stupid
this helped me a lot thanks!!!
Glad it helped!
