If your receiver is HDMI and has ARC support you don't need the optical plug. More than likely the tv supports ARC as well - ARC = Audio Return Channel. I had to look it up in the manual of my receiver to figure out how to turn it on. Aside from that - I have no idea what the back of your TV looks like and how the port is covered. Maybe drill a hole through the mount? Maybe grind away some of the obstruction till you can see what you're after? There may be a 90* optical adapter you can use...need more information to be more helpful.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had a friend help me take the TV off the wall (for about 45 seconds), plugged it, and hung it back up. No effort at all.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The mount has several holes for adjustable install I would suggest moving it to a hole that doesn't interfere. Only issue is this will change the mount height on the wall so if that's crucial for you, you may have to adjust the height of the part mounted on the wall.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Geek Squad installed my television with this mount. I have a Bose solo that takes the optic. It is also a SONY 60 LCD. There was no problem. Maybe reach out to them or talk to a Magnolia person?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Your options would be to either get a different mount, modify the existing mount, or get a low profile optic cable that will allow you to plug in possibly between the mount and the monitor. It would be a 90 degree optic cable if there is such a thing available.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You may try spacers to see if they can get enough clearance to access the Digital Optical port. If that is not feasible, and you are within the 15 day return period, you may need to exchange this towards a different wall mount.
