Product Q&A
I noticed when the sound bar is on my Wi-Fi connectivity slows down on 5G. If I turn the rear speakers off the speed comes back up is anyone else having this problem and how to fix it
Can the rear speakers be constantly connected to the power outlet rather than being put back to the main soundbar for recharging? I noticed some mini USB sockets in the rear speakers but wanted to double check. Thank you!
Do the dimensions stated for the soundbar include the detachable rear speakers?
How can I keep the detachable speakers awake / wake them up when having a dedicated charging cable plugged in?
If I want to watch TV quietly, like after the kids go to sleep is it possible to turn off the bar and subwoofer and only use the surround speakers placed close to my couch.
Hi, when I paired my soundbar with my TV using ARC, the sound bar automatically turns to mute and cannot be canceled by either TV or soundbar's remote. I can reboot the TV or switch the source of the soundbar to solve the problem. Is it normal?
Hi, I paired my soundbar with my TV using ARC., this way I can also use my tv'S remote controller for the sound bar. WHen I turn off my tv, the soundbar goes on standby mode. Is there a way to to make it turn off completely when turning off tv? Thanks!
Hi! Can someone advise what is the real size (the lenght) of the soundbar along with the two surround speakers attached to it! Thanks guys!
