GET READY FOR GREAT SOUND

A few easy steps, and you’re ready to start enjoying your
SurroundBar

®

SDA

®

Instant Home Theater.

1

Connect the SurroundBar SDA power supply to the 
SurroundBar SDA and plug the other end into an AC outlet.

2

Plug the subwoofer power cord into an AC outlet  
and into the back of the wireless subwoofer.

3

Turn on the power switches on both the 
SurroundBar SDA and the wireless subwoofer.

4

Turn on the other components in your system 
and tune to a familiar channel. 

You should hear sound from the SurroundBar SDA. If you don’t, 
turn up the volume on the SurroundBar SDA using its volume 
control buttons.

If your SurroundBar SDA is connected to your TV, try adjusting 
the volume using the TV remote control. If the volume level 
of your SurroundBar SDA changes, it means it is connected 
to a “variable” output. The mute control on your remote control
should also work. In this case you do not have to program your
SurroundBar SDA to respond to your remote control. If the 
volume level does not change, refer to page 9 ”HOW TO 
SET UP A REMOTE CONTROL FOR YOUR SurroundBar SDA.”

If your SurroundBar SDA is connected to your TV, there’s a very
good chance your TV speakers are also playing. It’s impossible 
to give specific instructions on how to turn off the speakers for
every TV, but here’s a way to do it that covers many of the TVs
out there. 

1

On your TV remote control, find a “menu” or “setup” button. 

2

Press this button. You should see an on-screen menu. 

3

Next, look for an option to control audio functions 
and select it. 

The setting to turn off your TV’s internal speakers should be here.

HOW TO OPTIMIZE THE SOUND WHEN 
TV SPEAKERS ARE ON

If you can’t turn off your TV internal speakers, don’t worry. 
Your SurroundBar SDA will make your TV sound much better. 

To enjoy the best performance from your SurroundBar SDA, 
you’ll want it to play louder than your TV. Use the following 
steps to adjust the volume balance between your TV and 
the SurroundBar SDA:

1

If necessary program your SurroundBar SDA to respond   
to the volume up and down control commands of your TV 
remote. (See “HOW TO SETUP A REMOTE CONTROL 
FOR YOUR SurroundBar SDA.” on page 9.)

2

Turn your TV volume all the way down using the control 
buttons on your TV.

3

Then, using the volume control buttons on your 
SurroundBar SDA, set the volume to a normal 
listening level.

After you make these adjustments, your SurroundBar SDA should
always be louder than your TV speakers. Then use the TV remote
control to adjust the volume as you normally do.

NOTE: You may need to adjust the GAIN LEVEL to “2” or 
“3” to compensate for the low TV volume setting (see page 
9 for details).
