[. . . ] This effect can vary depending on the listening position ­ some listening positions may yield very good results, while others may have far too much (or too little) bass at certain frequencies. In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the soundbar (2) can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the left and right speakers. In some rooms, the best performance could even result from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position (3). WaLL-MOuNtiNg tHe sOuNdBar If your TV is attached to a wall, you can use the included wall-mount brackets to mount the soundbar on the wall directly below the TV screen. Make sure that the top of the soundbar will not block your view of the TV screen when it is mounted on the wall. Mark the locations of the soundbar wall-mount bracket holes on the wall. The holes for the left and right brackets are spaced 30-5/16" (770mm) apart, and are designed to accept 4mm diameter screws. The top and bottom holes for each bracket are spaced 1" (25mm) apart. See the illustration below. 1. TV 2. 1" (25mm) 30-5/16" (770mm) (not to scale) NOTE: To ensure that the soundbar will be level, use a carpenter's level, laser sight or other device to ensure that the two sets of holes are at exactly the same height. Attach the two wall-mount brackets to the wall at the locations you marked, using hardware that is appropriate for the wall's construction and materials. Be sure to use hardware that can support this weight. 3. We strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a final location for your subwoofer. One way you can determine the best location for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be placed), and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is best. IMPORTANT: The maximum wireless operating distance between the soundbar and subwoofer is approximately 50 feet (15. 3m). 4. After making all of the connections described in the Connections section, on page 5, attach the soundbar to the brackets by sliding the brackets' vertical tabs into the slots in the soundbar's rubber bumpers.

If your TV has two sets of audio output jacks, use the set that has a fixed (not variable) output level. This will let you turn your TV's speakers all the way off while the TV still supplies a constant audio signal to the soundbar. digital: If your DVD player, cable tuner or satellite tuner has an optical digital output, you can use an optical digital audio cable to connect it to the soundbar's Source 2 (optical digital) input. sB300 soundbar NOTE: If your DVD player, cable tuner or satellite tuner does not have an optical digital output, you can connect its analog audio output to your TV. [. . . ] When the subwoofer is properly in phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound will be clearer and have more impact. It will make percussive sounds like drums, piano and plucked strings sound more lifelike. The best way Pairing to set the Phase switch is to listen to music that you are familiar with and adjust the switch so that drums and other percussive sounds have maximum impact. www. jbl. com 7 English HARMAN Consumer, Inc. 8500 Balboa Boulevard, Northridge, CA 91329 USA © 2011 HARMAN International Industries, Incorporated.
