How much of the bracket can you see from the side? My TV will be totally recessed & I'm hoping the bracket isn't visible for the soundbar...

You have to look really close to see the bracket. When mounted, the total distance from wall to the front of Sonos speaker is 3.75 inches. The bracket mounts flush with wall and is barely thick enough for mounting heads to slide into place. To get the speaker any closer to the wall, you'd have to glue it in place.

The sound bar installs beautifully and, with the narrow bracket, it only comes out from the wall about 1/2". The bracket cannot be seen. I had the power cord put through a small hole in the wall directly behind the speaker (sound bar) and run to an outlet which is hidden by a credenza below the TV and sound bar. And, the Sonos system performs very well.

Mine is right in front center of TV. That was what I was looking for barely 4" high it fits below the screen without getting in the way like bulkier taller center channel speakers. I have a subwoofer as it part of my 7.1 speaker system with 2 Cerwin Vega bookshelf a up front and 4 Boston acoustic cubes as surrounds. Relatively inexpensive but great sounding system with my Sony 7.1 receiver.

Hi, in my opinion would not put a bracket on the wall. Try to put on a shelf that can leave one behind at least 20cm of space. The sound is much better.If you want to still, buy one universal, has a fitting to screw into the back of the speaker. Bye.

Shirley, I've looked along the sides and don't find any ports for sound to escape. The speakers are forward-facing. Incidentally, mine supports the weight of my 46" Panasonic plasma without complaint.

This sound bar will not support your tv on top of it. It does mount to the wall under your tv quite nicely

I used 2 of the tv's mount holes. Top 2 if top mounting sound bar or bottom 2 if bottom mount is better. Just loosen one side at a time and slide the bracket under the wall mount bracket and return the screw and tighten back down leaving it only finger tight. This way you can center the speaker before you do your final tightening. Enjoy your purchase... Mike

Hi Bill Turff, when placing TV on the using bracket, we strongly suggest to have it setup by a professional TV mounting service people so that it will pose no damage for you and for the TV. -Ely

Hi, I used the Sonos mount. I mounted sound bar on wall under the tv that is on swinging mount. The Sonos mount is invisible and the whole set up looks great. I know you asked about Sewell, but I hope this is helpful input.

I believe so. I think the brackets on the bottom of the soundbar are meant to used as wall brackets as well.

A forward tillt shouldn't be that noticeable. If it is, have you tried repositioning considering the tv literally hangs on the brackets and is not "screwed" in? Hope that helps!

I came here with the same question. The 42" Soundbar from Vizio is 3.2 x 42.3 x 3.7 inches. Can anyone confirm that would fit in front of the support on the second shelf?

Fair. I put a polk 9000 soundbars on mine because of the application I am using it for. Another one was sold to my father in law and he has no sound bar. No complaints.

I don't have a sound bar in front of the unit, but I can guess this would cause problems with the remote. The model I have has a very specific spot you need to point the remote. If I don't have the remote aimed correctly then the tv doesn't respond. The sensor seems to be on the lower left of the screen so you might be okay but if the sound bar blocks line of sight to this location from any spot in the room I would guess that this would definitely cause a problem. Caveat: The sensitivity of the remote seems abnormal so I might have a bad/weak sensor in the TV I got. Your results may very, good luck.

As a soundbar junkie I have owned them all and tried every mounting position that can be done,,,, my feelings are that soundbars almost always sound better mounted above a TV/display. 52" above floor level is not that high at all,,,,, I was experimenting with my Sony CT-100, Sony CT-500 and my Vizio Soundbar w/wireless sub and found one of the BEST spots for mounting was 7' from the floor, at 7' high the sound has nothing to block the reflective sound coming from the soundbar such as curtains, paintings on the wall and such. Each room is different though, but for me the higher I place my soundbars the better they sounded. Cheers Davyo

The TV only mounts to this bracket. If you want to install a sound bar it may have to be mounted on the TV. I didn't use a sound bar on mine. Consult the documentation of the sound bar installing.

Because the length of the Soundbar matches TV's 40" and up. A smaller tv and the soundbar will stick out on the sides.

I have the same bracket... I can't see a way to cut it down... I have a 32 inch TV and part of the bracket actually sticks out one side... I thought I might paint it when I do some clean up painting this winter... you may come up with something better
