A:AnswerI was told to be careful about soundbar manufacturers that also make TV's. Sometimes they are not compatible unless same brand. I bought a Bose soundbar and it works perfectly with the HDMI arc hookup on my 50' hisense. Bose is one of the brands that does not make TV's so probably more versatile as they want their product to be as compatible and universal as possible.
A:AnswerHi There,
The HW-B450 Soundbar has Bluetooth and Digital Optical ports, if your TV has either of those then you will be all set.
The AU8000 can connect with either input.

A:AnswerI do not know if it will work well behind the television.
I installed in front of the TV...... and that is working well.
I imagine that behind the television the sound will not be
good.... but I did not try that.
A:AnswerHi there,
For your HW-B450 Soundbar I would suggest using the Digital Optical Cable if it is possible for the most stable connection. Any devices such as Wi-Fi routers can also interrupt Bluetooth signals if they too close.
Also you can try doing a hard reset on your Soundbar. Turn on the Soundbar and then press the + -Volume UP/DOWN buttons on the top panel for 5 seconds. “INIT OK” appears on the display and the Soundbar is reset.
