Professional Soundbar Installation And TV Setup
Get a cleaner TV wall and better everyday sound with professional soundbar mounting, placement, cable planning, and device setup.
Artesoft installs soundbars below or above wall-mounted TVs, coordinates the bracket and screen placement, and reviews cable paths before drilling begins. Whether you are updating a living room, bedroom, media room, office, or conference space, the goal is a secure setup that looks intentional and is easy to use.
Soundbar Setup That Fits The TV And The Room
A soundbar should be positioned around the screen, not treated as an afterthought. The TV height, mount type, wall surface, furniture, outlet location, connected devices, and desired wire finish all affect where it should go.
Artesoft can install a customer-supplied soundbar or help coordinate it with a TV mounting project. Soundbars can be mounted on drywall, brick, or stone using the proper mounting method for the wall surface and equipment. We focus on proper alignment, a secure mounting method, practical connections, and a clean finished appearance.
For a living-room TV on a full-motion mount, our best recommendation is usually a compatible TV-mounted soundbar bracket below the TV. The soundbar then moves with the screen when the TV swivels left or right, keeping the audio aligned with the picture.
Choose The Soundbar Setup That Works For Your Space
The right installation depends on the soundbar model, TV location, wall condition, equipment, and whether you want visible or hidden cables.
TV And Soundbar Wall Setup
Mount the TV and place the soundbar directly below it for a balanced viewing and listening area.
Soundbar With Wire Concealment
Coordinate HDMI, power, and device cables with an in-wall or external wire-management solution when appropriate.
Media Room Audio Setup
Plan soundbar location with a receiver, subwoofer, streaming devices, and the main seating position.
Small Details Make A Big Difference
Soundbars can block a TV sensor, sit too low for furniture, look uneven under the display, or leave visible cables when the room was not planned first. Sharing a wall photo, TV size, soundbar model, mount type, and outlet location helps define the cleanest path before the appointment.
For fireplace installations, placement must also account for mantel height, heat considerations, viewing angle, and the cable route.

Soundbar Installation FAQ
Answers to common questions before planning a TV and soundbar installation.
Can you mount a soundbar under my wall-mounted TV?
Yes. Artesoft can mount many soundbars below a wall-mounted TV. The installation method depends on the soundbar model, TV mount, wall surface, cable path, and the finished look you want.
Can you install a soundbar if my TV is already mounted?
Yes. A soundbar can often be added to an existing TV installation. Photos of the TV wall, mount, soundbar, outlets, and current cables help determine the best mounting and connection approach.
Will the soundbar move when my full-motion TV swivels?
It can. For a full-motion TV in a living room, a compatible TV-mounted soundbar bracket installed below the screen is often the best choice. The soundbar moves left or right with the TV, stays visually aligned with the picture, and avoids leaving the soundbar fixed on the wall while the screen moves away from it. Compatibility, soundbar weight, and cable slack should be reviewed first.
Can the soundbar wires be hidden?
Many setups can use in-wall wire concealment or an external cord-cover solution. The best option depends on wall type, outlet placement, the devices being connected, and local electrical requirements.
Do you connect the soundbar to the TV?
Basic connection and testing can be included when the equipment and access are ready. The exact setup depends on the TV, soundbar, HDMI ARC or eARC availability, streaming devices, and any receiver or subwoofer involved.
Can a soundbar be installed over a fireplace?
Possibly. Fireplace projects need extra review for TV height, mantel clearance, heat, wall material, wiring, and viewing comfort. Send photos and the soundbar model before booking so the layout can be reviewed.
