Thank you for choosing an Origin Soundbar. The Soundbar is a passive speaker system.
The SBR41 & SBR41-LCR are single channel enclosures that can be placed on the Le, on
the Right, or in the Center above & below the video display. Three speakers can also be
placed in a linear row above or below the video display. The rest of the SBR43-50 to SBR43-
85 models contain all three channels, Le, Center and right.
The drivers are mounted in extruded aluminum enclosures and can be mounted on the
wall or attached to a third-party mount connected directly to the video display. Regardless
of your choice of mounting and position, the Soundbars will deliver pristine music and
movie soundtracks and compliment your home theater experience.
This Soundbar range has been specially developed to extend and be adjusted in order to
exact match any specic model of TV for the ideal visual symmetry within the space.
This instruction booklet cover the necessary information for a smooth installation, including:
the tools you will need, step-by-step instructions for installation, troubleshooting tips for
any errors that may occur, and all warranty information. If for any reason you experience

The first step in mounting the Soundbar is to determine the optimum position
based on the room parameters and your television location.
Care must be taken to ensure the soundbar is mounted securely.
It is best to check the angle of the television and use that line as a guide to avoid
the appearance that the soundbar is mounted misaligned. Be advised that there
are several relative angles in the room that may not be square. Use a level to
establish the ideal position based on gravity.
The soundbars use a keyhole mounting system (See Diagrams 1, 2A & 2B).
The Soundbar will slide down 3/8'' below the template location, until the screw
rests at the uppermost position in the mounting element. Take this into account
when marking screw holes.
Make sure there is enough room to accommodate the soundbar in the selected
location.

Once the position has been established, place the included template in the
desired location (See Diagrams 3 & 4):
1. Making sure the position lines up with the television,
2. Secure the template with masking tape on the wall.
3. Mark the final screw position on the wall with a sharp tool or a tack.
4. Remove the template from the wall.
5. Drive in the screws using a screwdriver. Use the appropiate mounting: you will
either use wood screws or drywall anchors to secure the soundbar behind the
drywall.
6. Make sure when tightening the screws that enough space is allowed for the
mounting element to slide over the head of the screw and into its final position.
This may require a bit of adjustment to securely position the speaker against
the wall. Once the mounting has been tested, remove the speaker from the wall.
A hole must now be drilled into the wall to allow for the speaker wires to pass
through, making sure the hole is large enough for all three wires to pass through.

To perfectly align to the TV length, each soundbar can be extended by 1'', before
securing to the wall. This is done by extending the screw caps by up to 1/2 inch
on each end of the soundbar. Make sure to center the screws on the wall before
you prepare to extend the soundbar. Take o the logo-engraved magnetic cover,
on each end-cap, and use a drill, to loosen the the two screws on each end of the
Soundbar:
1. Once the logo-engraved cover is o (See Diagram 5), use the a drill with a
phillips head, anticlockwise, to loosen & extend the sounbar end-cap. Several
possible adjustments can be made to provide the best match to the exact TV
length.
2. Alternate adjustments between the 2 screws, to make sure the angles of the
end caps stay parallel.
3. Once extended fully, each end cap will reach an additional 1/2'', if a longer
length adjustment is desired, take o the second end cap, and repeat the process
to reach an addition 1/2'' length in size.
To shorten the length, use the drill, clockwise, to re-righten the cap.

Once the mounting screws are installed and the wire hole has been drilled, it is
time to run the wires.
Each soundbar will have an individual pair of speaker wires for each speaker:
Diagram 5: The SBR41 & SBR41-LCR models will have 1 pair of wires to connect
to the single speaker, and can be mounted each as either a Le, Center, or Right
speaker.
Diagram 6: The SBR43-50 - SBR43-85 range of models will have 3 pairs of wires to
connect to the each of their 3 internal speakers.
Each pair of speaker wires will have a positive (+) and negative (-) connection.
Check your speaker wire for the indication along the wire to dierentiate between
the two. Make sure you use the same wire to connect to (+) and (-) on both the
speaker and the amplifier/receiver.
Strip the insulation ½’’ from the end of the wire. Run the speakers out of the
hole in the wall and use the connectors to attach the correct wires to the speaker
terminals. The terminals operate by putting the wire inside the terminal. Aer the
wire is inserted, use a screwdriver to turn the screw, and it will lock the wire in
place. Lastly, make sure the insulation is not inserted into the hole in the terminal
as it will not allow the wire to make a connection.
On the SBR41 & SBR41-LCR models, ensure you connect the appropriate
channel, Le, Center and Right, on both the speaker and the amplifier/receiver. If
not, the positional steering of the movie soundtrack will be incorrect.
(See Diagram 8).

Once the speaker has been wired, secure the Soundbar to the wall by sliding it
over the screws. Make sure to feed the wires into the wall as you prepare to mount
it to avoid pinching, kinking or disconnection during the mounting process. Your
new Soundbar is now ready for your listening enjoyment.
Depending on the complexity of your system, there are several possible
adjustments to provide the best possible sonic experience:
Most audio/video receivers (AVR’s) have some type of test program that plays
a signal through each channel to allow you to balance the output. This is best
performed from the principle listening position.
There will also be equalization (EQ) controls to adjust the frequency response as it
is eected by the parameters of the room.
If you are using a dedicated subwoofer, adjusting the balance and crossover
point between the subwoofer and your Soundbar is critical; the ideal balance
will provide deep warm bass without overshadowing the mids and highs that are
so critical in a musical performance. This may take a few days and several small
adjustments to get it right.
Lastly, be aware that dierent sources, BluRay Disc Players, Cable TV, streaming
music will all have slightly dierent volume levels and EQ curves. Even dierent
television channels may vary in their sonic presentation. This is normal and
something you can adjust to your preference.

If possible, it’s oen good to try to isolate the problem first. For example, if you’re
playing a DVD on a television and there’s no sound, try connecting an MP3 player
to the system to see if that works. If it does work, then the problem is with the
television, DVD player, or the cables connecting them. If it doesn’t work, the
problem will be with the amplifier, speakers, or those cables.
Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause
No Sound The volume may be turned down or muted. Check the volume
settings on both the amplifier and the television/computer/CD
player/etc.
No Sound Make sure the proper source is selected on the amplifier or
receiver.
No Sound Check the cord connecting the amplifier with the source. The
cord may be damaged or plugged into the wrong input or
output.
No Sound Check the wires connecting the amplifier with the speakers.
Make sure they’re connected properly and not damaged in any
way.
Poor
Sound
Quality
If you hear something like static, or the sound is cutting in and
out, check the audio cables. If the problem increases when a
cable is being moved, then the cable is most likely faulty or not
connected properly.
Poor
Sound
Quality
Today’s audio systems may have several places to adjust the
volume, for example your MP3 player may have a volume
control, and your amplifier may also have one. Check to be
certain that the volume isn’t turned up past 80% on any device.
