Installing the AMBEO Soundbar | Max

Placing the Soundbar on the device feet

Caution

Material damage due to overheating

Inadequate ventilation may cause the Soundbar to overheat.

▷Do not place any objects on the Soundbar, keep the minimum clearances and ensure circulating ventilation.

Caution

Staining of furniture surfaces!

Varnish or furniture polish may degrade the feet of the product, which could stain your furniture.

▷Do not place the product on delicate surfaces. Use a non-slip pad under the product if necessary.

▷With the help of a second person, take the Soundbar out of the packaging.

▷Remove the protective foil.

▷Remove the protective foil from the OLED display.

▷With the help of a second person, place the Soundbar on a sturdy, level, horizontal piece of furniture that can safely carry the weight of the Soundbar (approx. 18.5 kg).

▷Observe the following:

–The distance X of the Soundbar to the side walls should ideally be the same so that the Soundbar is centered in the room. The optimum distance between the Soundbar and the walls is between 1 and 5 meters.

–There must be no objects between the Soundbar, the side walls and the ceiling of the room that block sound or have a strong sound-absorbing effect (e.g. furniture such as shelves or arm­chairs, room dividers, curtains, flower pots).

–The distance X of the Soundbar to the ceiling should be between 1 and 5 meters, but should not exceed 5 meters. The ceiling should be flat and horizontal (no pitched roof or domed roof).

–The Soundbar should be positioned below the TV.

•The distance of the Soundbar to the TV should be at least 3.94"/10 cm.

•The seat (optimal point “sweet spot”) should be positioned cen­trally in front of the Soundbar and have a distance of at least 2 meters to the Soundbar.

▷Caution_Hot_Surface.pngEnsure circulating ventilation. The product generates heat which is dissipated through the housing. Do not touch when in use or directly after use!

 

Optimum positioning

Schematic structure of the sound waves from the Soundbar, which are reflected by walls and objects and thus reach the optimal point (“sweet spot”). Thus, a virtual surround sound can be created with a Soundbar.

When positioning the Soundbar, keep in mind that the sound is reflected by the walls and ceiling. Many curtains, thick carpets and other rough surfaces can affect the 3D spatial sound.
