A:AnswerThere are slits on the mounting plate that allow the customer to choose where to install the screws so that the shelf can accommodate a variety of stud placements.
A:AnswerThank you for your question. The dimensions of the shelf are 40"L x 6" W and can support up to 11lbs. Based on the Bose Soundbar 700 specifications (38.5"L x 4.25" W and 10.5lbs), this shelf should support the soundbar.

A:AnswerBest install is to find the studs and screw into up to 3 studs. I only used 2 because I bought this for my soundbar that's probably less than 10 pounds.
A:AnswerPersonally I would not put a tv on it because it's only 6 inches wide and for me I would be nervous about it getting knocked off. It's perfect for my soundbar and my tv is on a tv wall mount just above it.
A:AnswerI don't know if there would be a weight difference between Sony and Samsung, but my Samsung sound bar is almost as long as the shelf, and it sits on it very nicely.
